Bottle holder bracket …

I made a bracket for a bicycle drinking bottle holder a few years ago.

It fitted nicely into a slot in the SW-Motech luggage rack, and I have been so happy with it that I wanted another one on the other side of the bike.

So it was just a matter of making a copy of the old bracket to make the bike symetrical again 😉

Making a spacer for the front sprocket …

By |2023-12-11T07:50:16+01:00December 11th, 2023|Kawasaki Versys-X 300|

The original sprocket for the Kawasaki Versys-X have a build in spacer on the inner side that is 3,5 mm wide.

I like the new sprocket type with the rubber dampers on both sides of the sprocket, but this is only available for the Versys-X in the original 14 tooth size, and I prefer the 15 tooth size to lower the RPM a bit.

I can get a 15 tooth sprocket (with the rubber dampers) that fits on the gearbox shaft splines, but it comes without the build in 3,5 mm spacer.

But I have a lathe and some internal parts from a BMW F800 front fork, and was able to change it into a 3,5 mm spacer 👍👍👍

Boring German gas station …

The German Autobahn is never fun, but it is an efficient way to cover many miles in a day.

We was back home in Denmark late in the evening after 6000 kms in 16 days.

Ireland was a fantastic experience and highly recommended if you want to go on an epic motorcycle trip 🏆☘️
