Well, the rig has returned successfully from its second major trip, this time to the Nordkapp and back......with that under its belt AND a trip to the Elefant, performing perfectly on both, I guess we can claim that it works, is bloody solid and not a bad bit of kit
There are two under construction in the toyshed right now, both for K100 bikes (I'll apologise to Mike at his funeral next week
) and they are both looking ace......Both will end up with our dual battery split charging system running LED floodlights for camping set-ups as well as charging boxes (mounted in Peli cases) for phones, laptops etc etc, and both will be fully ruggedised.
I'm waiting for the piccies of the Nordkapp trip from Gerty and I'll post them up as soon as I can.....We have already started planning another rig build on a very different bike (still with long distance rugged travel in mind though) and again, will post up when we start that project
Oh, and we've also made up a cunning spacer system that mounts onto Fiesta stub axles, with which we can mount up GS wheels......the Yellow Peril rig will be retrofitted with one so it will end up with 2 GS rears and a front standard GS hoop, but we'll have to go play on the farmer's fields with that, at speed again, to make sure we don't alter the geometry and handling
Actually, fekkit, I won't apologise to Mike, he actually LIKED the 1100 Rig
