Right…..

Next job to get done.

One that @nickwheeler was hoping I would get on with. Maybe.

So I removed the battery bridge, which also incorporated part of the air-box support.

Then measured and marked out the holes for the M8 bolts to screw into that would hold the battery strap down, drilled the holes, tapped them.

Perfect.

Than made up the strap and burned the holes and added the eyelets.

Also made a pair of “large” plates to replace washers and also grip the strap on the bridge.

Few more little fine tuning actions, then some paint and final,fitting.

Ohh…. And terminals to be made up of course.

Another little job done.
