Default Pics of BST's

Just before my first run on the new wheels and tyres (apart from a blast up and down the highway). The run turned out to be one waiting for a trailer to arrive. My mate had a puncture . But at least I got to try it a little.

Very cool N, I had a pair on my Mv Agusta. Made such a improvement on handling, barking and performance( Mv needed it).

Enjoy.

Nigel, what did you do to attach the rear of your belly pan or is not really attached to anything? Any pics if you made up some sort of bracket?

It attaches to nothing, just holds the 2 sides together and is easily secure enough. I first made a bracket from a simple flat strip of aluminum that is used for carpet fitting. But that bothered me becauae the holes on each side are offset so the bracket does not sit square (but it was super quick to make). So I then made a wider peice which I cut down on either end (on the front on the left and to the rear on the right) so the bracket sits straight, and not skew, to compensate for the offset holes. I had it powder coated for $5 when I was happy with it. I will remove it and take some pics when I get a chance so you can get the idea.

Thanks Nigel... I got the idea... You answered my main question which was did it attach to anything... I had a similar idea, which was to either tie it together like you did, or where it passes under the pipe, put a clamp there and attach it to the pipe. I didn't really want to go that route if it would be stout enough w/it just hanging there but tied into the other side of the pan like you did.
