I love that eyelet! :D
I've made a similar cover, and i'll go down right away and punch in an eyelet myself... ;D

Well done job on the rest of the bike! :)

Gary,   no problem, please use whatever photos you want. if you need them in any other way, i.e  by email, or larger size, please tell me. ;)


Cornelius, it's the attention to detail that makes things what they are, the eyelet was one of the more calmer moments of the modifications as you can imagine  :D

Excellent detail, that one... ;)

My eyelet are now in place, although the only I had lying around was a (cheap) aluminium eyelet with an inner diameter of 10mm, it fits perfectly. :) Much more elegant than folding up the cover to get the key in... ;)

Cheers Monkey :)   Rozzers = traditional/old  nick-name/fun name for the cops.  :D




i feel there is nothing left to do to the bike (apart from ride it and enjoy it) that can keep me busy in the present long dark evenings. I want some kind of rear view mirror that does not stick out offensively but that's about it.

I still cannot believe the difference it has made adding the front motor with both motors running off the same battery, it's incredible.  the bikes balance, speed, power, take-off, acceleration......,  amazing!

Derrr we tried telling ya ;) haha jks

I had a mirror, then thought it was a bit ghey so I took it off and replaced it with a rearview camera under my seat and a cheap little lcd on the handlebars it works a treat!@!

If you are running AAA batteries in your front LED lights the only thing you might choose to do is run them off your GM battery. You can just wire them to a resistor and solder to the battery terminals so you don't get caught out without lights

I'd leave it, it looks tops the way it is and you shouldn't ride at night all the time anyway :D

yeah,  mirrors are a bit ghey, ha ha.   if you have a mirror you also might as well have tassles on the ends of the handle bars and a bell and a basket   :D

How about those small mirrors that fastens onto the end of the handlebars? I'm going to get some of those myself, because with a motor and the speed that comes with it, I really miss mirrors... :)

this has potential, although i'm not sure if it will see past panniers on the rear rack?


This also, if positioned where it mirrors a gap under the arm if mounted on handle bar or frame...
