    I normally have the topo contours turned off in the Map Menu on my GARMIN MAP76, then tracks are clearly definable.
    Works well with Shonky Maps full Topo as well ;)

    Isn`t there a menu where you can change the contours ???
    My Garmin is adjustable as far as thickness of line etc (but I have no colour)

    I didn’t realise that was the fuel cap behind the seat. Here I was thinking “these boys sure like their bike to look pretty, they won’t even cover up one little plastic badge to get more luggage space”. I was geme to say it though without knowing someone well enough (ie having met them) to give them shit. Lucky politeness won in this case or I would have had a little egg on my face.

    :laugh: :laugh:
    How did I miss this today ???

    You do know what site you are on don`t ya Roy ??? :silly:

    You might as well go the Euro mate and save the wait (weight) :whistle: then :laugh:

    Nah, It would suck having made up your mind so long ago, then be in second mind now that they are out :pinch:
    Good things come to those who wait apparently mate 😆

    Good Luck with it

    That didn`t last long at all ,,,,

    Gave it some thought during the day at work, came home, had another look and decided to hack some more off 😆
    My AndyStrapz Bags have a good sizes strap that crosses over the fuelcap area to help hold them on the bike, so off came some of the fat to minimise rubbing on the strap (some more pinchweld may be used there too ;)
    It also gives me more access to the frame supports to attach straps when securing gear…..

    Also cut couple of more slots in the back part of the plate to save an ounce or two , It is still a work in progress so more may be cut or just make them a little longer :)

    2012-03-02162603.jpg

    It is still surprisingly strong and I reckon I could stand on top of it no probs …..
    Ya just can`t beat some quiet ShedTime on a rainy arvo :woohoo:
