Back with a 500 ....

<< < (15/46) > >>

deltarider:
This is how I have mine (homebuilt). Never moved a mm.

Oddjob:
I was talking to Mark Paris on his Hondaman system and where to mount it. I asked him if I could open the case so I could attach a bracket but he said that the countersunk screws can be removed and replaced with different ones if you need to do that.

Given all that I either intend to mount mine below the battery case or behind it Simon, just an idea as even though you can't see it, it would look tidier and more secure that way.

deltarider:
The location of mine has proved excellent. No heat, no vibrations thanks to the six damping rubbers in the battery cage. It's still the same 46 year old rubber strap. Mine is just a little bit canted due to the screws that fasten the power transistors, which helps to secure its position. It's impossible for the box to slide down. BTW, you'd be surprised how much space there is behind that RH side panel. I could have chosen a much bigger box.

It doesn't quite fit behind - that is as far in as I could get it .... I'll take another look and remove the battery to see if I can get it any better
