I understand but it is about the look for me, I may even put conti tkc80's on it

Tkc 80's going on my r80/7 this winter, snow won't stop play then

Ive looked at this option, this bike has 2 18" wheels so I would have to put on 2 rear tyres, rear would have to be a 120 and the front 110, it would look good

Battery moved to were the air box was

Balance pipe removed

 

[the civil one]

What are you doing with the Engine Breather ?
A wee Filter , or a Catch can or both ?
A Smaller neater battery in a smaller neater battery box ?
Or an starter cover / airbox replacement cover ?

 

[degsey]

I will more than likely put a small catch can with some braided hose going to it; while you’re on the subject of batteries would you know of a small battery that would do the job?

 

[desmo2]

I'd also like to hear of a ' small ' battery that's up to the job . Don't hold your breath tho' :-(

 

[degsey]

the one in the picture above is from a GS 1200, the one on it originally was like a car battery

Would it be a daft idea to put the carb air inlets and filter box back and sit the Battery inside where the filter would normally fit = You could filter the surround of the battery
Or

Totally ignore me I have had more than 2 pints

Build a box and fit battery under gearbox at the back there. A chap on adv rider (pruster... I think) has done it.

[(RIP) Arkwright]

From a recently modded Caff Racer..............obviously it needs a gel type battery.

+1 for Motobatt............the one fro a 1200 is perfect size and about £45 delivered from Busters.

 

[Canuck]

I suggested that arkwright but its a no go I guess...to me it seems to be the best way to hide a full size battery as unless one is laying on the ground... you wouldn't see it.

 

[degsey]

got to agree with you both that looks good, it would be nice if I could see the mounting points

 

[degsey]

Made a phone call to Adam at Untitled Motorcycles today they are going to send me one of these to weld on to the frame so I can mount the battery under the gear box

Have only spoken to Adam via e mail but he seems to be more than willing to help and has answered all my questions. Just have to find something to buy from them now! Did you get a price list of the other bits and pieces they do?

 

[degsey]

I just asked him for a price on the box, very reasonable too
