Mike Stewart Posted May 29, 2005 Author Posted May 29, 2005 How about some nice pictures of the polished titanium cans on your bike Mike
Ballacraine Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 All right then......... Had to shrink the images quite a bit to post them. Hope it comes out OK! Cop a load of this! Nige.

belfastguzzi Posted May 30, 2005 Posted May 30, 2005 Looks good & they have better support than the Gizzi kit. How do they sit on either side? Is any allowance made for the different clearance right and left or does the left pipe sit in closer that the right, viewed from the back? I missed out on footrest hangers on ebay yesterday – I was away when the auction closed. I would get a pair to modify them, otherwise I'll probably make something like yours sometime. As above, are they both the same, left and right? Great bargain, well done!

Great bargain, well done! 53079[/snapback] They sit in very snug on both sides. Build quality and fit is first class, and that is what you should get with a bespoke custom build as these were. I thought it sat entirely symetrical, but since you asked, I measured it...The right sits 20mm further out than the left, but you have to look very closely to notice. It all fits very close and neat...Almost too close to the indicators. Shame about that. Have a word with Pete Morecombe at Reboot...He may have something suitable? If not it isn't a complicated part. These are fabricated from 3.5mm plate. They are not identical. They are handed but I didn't measure them prior to assembly. I think there may well be a difference of the order of 10-20mm. If the new cans had been co-operative I would have used them with the standard hangers (with pillion footrests) in the event the mount would have been about 25mm too low, so I went with the supplied supports. (I haven't taken a pillion for the best part of a decade anyway. ) If you need more accurate measurements let me know & I will try my best for you. Thanks.....I'm sure of it! Regards, Nige.
