Thats a big box, I'd be sure and keep an eye on the 2 plastic nubs hold the top of the battery cover on

I'd say there is a bigger chance you don't know what your talking about. I apologize to you sir for being unable to drop everything and finish on your schedule...

It's all finished up and on my bike now. It was dark when I finished so I couldn't get a good picture of it. I will get one up tomorrow.

It's actually pretty small compared to most ammo cans. It probably only weighs 3 pounds. I mean obviously I know I won't be able to fill it with anything super heavy, but at least a nice waterproof spot to keep insurance, registration and some extra gloves and glasses.

Put it on because the weather was finally decent enough to ride and I didn't want to miss out. This weekend I'm going to pull off the lid and paint the handle, latch and hinge in the same candy orange as the bike.

Wow! That looks great!! Adding some matching orange highlights will only make it look better. Also, overall, you bike looks fantastic.

Do you have some type of clear (plexiglass?) cam cover?

Thank you! Yeah they are the Roland Sans clarity cam covers. It also has the transmission and rocker box covers. I'm debating doing a tank lift so the rocker box covers are a little more noticeable.

Pretty cool. That paint is badass bro, and like the overall look as well. A tank lift will help set off you ride bro. Diggin' mine.

Excellent job!

what are the dimensions of that can please? something like 10" x 6" x 3.75" ?

would you be so kind to show us a pic from 3/4 just to see how deep it is and if it sticks out from the bike much?

Also does it bother your leg when manouvering the bike/reversing it?
