I have to say, this looks impressive. carry on
We tested several conficurations and this is the definitive one. We even made a 360 grams cover. Tomorrow I'll try to post the weight calculated (i's not in this computer). The picture of the 3d printing will be posted tomorrow as soon as I'll receive it. in almost 10 days the cnc machined shuold have to be ready to fit. I can't see the time i'll turn the bike on.

Here it is the final version. My friend Franco who projected it assures me the 360 grams version wouldn't bend. This one has the outgoing passage for the wiring, plus longer screw passages and a more prominent wxternal face. It weighs 455 grams aluminum 6061. If painted it will have an absolutely honda like look. The next week I'll have the stainless steel bracket to hold in place the wiring and make it passing through the oem honda grommet.

I'm trying to understand what I have written, but trust me I can't.

Err...no! :whistle:

I don't have a garage so all my junk is at a container and I have not been to visit and dig things out. Thanks for the reminder though, as I do need to go and put some handlebars on no9 and drag the old bugger out to be sorted. :mrgreen:

I'll see if I an get it sorted :)
