Anyone got any ideas/links for a battery cover of any sort?? This has probably been mentioned loads before, but i just dont fancy a hugger and reckon the battery is well exposed under there.

Cheers,

Hiya,

Touratech do one (01-044-0480-0). Actually, I've got one, but its still in the bag - having too much fun riding ! Looks ok though:

I fitted one.

I fitted the TT one and seems to work ok but not as good as say an under seat tray would be if someone ever decides to make one.

The way I see it is we don't really like the "road bike look" of a hugger on the big traillie type machines we bought into particularly in carbon.

I keep looking up under the seat/subframe and down to the swingarm/shaft housing and I'm convinced there is some way of securing a moulding that is hidden but does the job. A bit like a hugger but not as poncy.

Anyway, the TT one it is for now. Just attaches with cable ties.

Skippy.
 
Nice one, you are exactly right IMO about the hugger, its not really in keeping with the overall look of the bike.

'Innovators and Vendors' get the thinking caps on..................
