I have a picture of a mate and I going for a ride in the mountains.
I need a long range tank
I just made a seat base and I was pleased with myself
How hard can it be. A strip of carbon fibber and some resin
Plan 1 hold a square plastic petrol container onto the back of the bike
Make it light strong and hold the tank down. Look like a F1 front wing

Hazza, Lol that's the last response I would ever have expected. "Nice shot of the derwent river from Berriedale"

I'm taking it out on its first ride this weekend to Buckland

Where and from what time at oatlands? May take one of daughters and see if they like it.

That bend is to sharp and I don't know if the carbon fibre will bend at that angle?

: 24 remade front one again
Did not like the sharp bend on the front one so made a new one with what I learned from shaping the back one; image.jpg (73.87 KiB) Viewed 38341 times

At this point I was only going to strap it down front and back with ocky straps and only have a small side support. The tips are for making a bit of shape for the straps so it won't Frey the cord.
