    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

That's a neat idea! I just ordered a set of pods (planning on a lot of carb tuning in the future) and was wondering what I could do with the extra space.
 
I've been thinking about a physically larger batter using part of the space the little tool caddy takes up. I keep what I carry on a a daily basis in the tail wrapped up in some shop rags so I really don't need that plastic thing in there and I've been thinking about adding some extra lights now that I'm back in suicidal deer country so extra capacity might be a good thing.

I was thinking something similar. Eventually, I'm going to get a new harness to modify to my requirements, and I was considering moving the battery to the back of the bike. I could use the space previously occupied by both my battery and my stock air box as a big 'ole tool box. Given the amount of allen head hardware on the bike, I could probably carry enough tools in that space to completely tear the bike down.
 
Very creative, looks good. I mighty add some kind of strap or something to keep the camera from bouncing around.

Years ago I spent a winter in the Alps skiing. I filled my ski poles and the empty space beneath my boot liners with weed.
Needless to say it was a fun filled winter to say the least. On the return home I had hash in there. :D
