Have a good day guys!
I had already said that I was into making a draft of intermittent extension for my '04 FZ6_S which had mounted v35 GIVI luggage (with its well-known problem of rear side-lights)
Well, I set to work and after thinking, measure, see, do and test cardboard models arrived at the design seemed most optimal for my course! )
This:
... and once made is such that:
The reason for the pieces "ring" is that the gap side-light supports is 5 mm thick and I didn't want to use 5 mm plate (too big!) but 2 mm, thus reinforcing the position and no intermittent movement when mounted on the workpiece.
Step 1:
Obviously, remove the old flashing and cut their corresponding cables and then make the joint extension. I cut it in the area closest to conextores found in the "handle" side with the seat.
Step 2:
Using a paper template, locate the attachment points.
Well be such that points 1 and 3 (enough for me)
I have withdrawn the ID Sheet to work better and because later we do a hole ...
Step 3:
We mark on the metal mounting points and proceed to drill. I used bolts M6 in my tool box with locking nuts.
Step 4:
As if the drill has gone a bit, position the piece again and check / mark the drill to make the plastic part of the bike.
Ready then to make the hole:
Step 5:
We turn now to mount the flash on the piece that we have made, taking into account the order of the pieces: the piece "big" goes between the flash and the annulus, in the right or left, they are different.
Okay, let's see where we pass the cables ...
Step 6:
I made the extension of the cables, about 200 mm or much. In my case I used soldering and heat shrink shrinkable so the cable cross-section will not increase too much as I use the same tray as the original cable, which is quite thin.
If you use fastons or similar, I think you have to find an alternative cable entry.
V'ssssssssss and hugs!
