Need more storage on Bike

I always ride with the seat in the high postion . I have boticed that there is space under the seat and would like to use this for say tire repare kit or extra tools. I like having almost all my fix on the side of the road gear permantly on the bike, as I only ride with panniers on longer trips and repairs can be required anytime. Wondering if anyone knows or has given some thought to using this space for storage.

Soz mate, I`ve not put any thought to it but I guess some of the other lads might have.........................

I have managed to fill it with a Tire Plug Kit and a couple of canisters, tape, tie-wraps, Cloth, general band aid treatment

tire plug kit is a bl**dy good idea to use the space very well

Just received my rad guards too and very nice they are indeed. I'll fit them in the next few days.

Very nice. Very good instructions and I particularly like the 25 degree measurement tool to form the flaps.

Nice work Mark.

Hi Mark,

Are you getting any more black powder coated deflectors done (no Trojan on mine please) soon?

Reading back a few pages you needed to get a volume to the powder coater

Order no: 1502/170713

Thanks
Kris

Thanks Graham and yes I agree - it looks good, far better in black!

Yes Kris, I did get a few made and sent so that it wasn`t crucifying me on cost so I have one in stock if you want it

Hi Mark, just sent you a PM, but I have a feeling the deflector won't fit the bikes with LED headlights, as the headlight unit is bigger.

Ah

But with that said no one has said anything `yet` so mebbe it fits

Also it fits above the light so I dunno - I`m hoping one of the lads will get back to me pretty soooooon

Graham, have you fitted yours yet? If so do you have the LCD headlight?

 

[Mark Hooton]

Link for rack if anyone needs it

and there's me now hoping it fits the bikes with the LCD headlights.......

 

[Nutty]

Graham's is non LED

 

[Mark Hooton]

Ahhhhhhhh bugger - product recall!

Lads, I`ve dropped one. It never occurred to me until Nuts has just pointed it out but the new deflector DOES NOT fit the LC with the LED headlight

nuts has just pointed this out

Surprisingly nothing to do with red wine - I simply have the base model with a standard light.

Guys, if you have ordered a deflector and it doesn`t fit then please send it back for a full refund.

Otherwise if you have the standard bike with the standard headlight please contact Kathryn on [email protected] letting her know so she still sends it.
