What's it for.?

[paddy]

What iam talking about is the gap on the left(as you look at the front of bike) side of the GSA fuel tank on a 2012 bike.

It looks like its designed to hold something as it has to screw threads which look like they hold a brace or something.
I guess size wise it would hold a sigh bottle or similar

Just curious really.?

As FP mentioned - the Septics don't have the option of a spare bottle as their eco-bollox means there's pipes and a filter there.

If we lived somewhere like Naples we would appreciate these anti HC vapour systems, but as (almost) nobody there maintains their vehicles they still suffer all the smog.

Up in Blighty its just eco bling.

Good to know but what oil should I put in it when I get one

septics : plural of sep·tic

Noun : A drainage system incorporating a septic tank.

So it's for a toilet.............

or a load of sh1t......

cooking oil for the bacon sarnies

I was looking at getting one of these but then just thought the thumbscrews might vibrate loose and didn't fancy the bottle falling out underneath the bike and back wheel. Anyone use one with no problem?
