I'm new. Changed the points cover on my 09 SG a while ago and learned that there's nothing behind the cover. Just a cavity. Been thinking about what to do with that space ever since. Anyone come up with a cool use for the cavity behind the points cover? How about a cash stash? Does it get too hot in there to stash US paper currency? (Already stash a key by taping it inside rear fender.)
I've wondered what could be put in there, just for giggles. Didn't come up with anything. I have heard of people putting some loved ones ashes in there so that they're with them riding.
I did read something in Thunder Press about a locking cover from someone, but that could be as
much as 3 or 4 months ago. I don't know how hot that area gets, and I don't know the Flash
point of paper money either. I would start off with a few one dollar bills to test it out so not to
lose any big bills $20.oo-$50.oo-$100.oo. That could make a handy place to stash your stash.
Ashes is the best. We put cousin Ron the tree hugger's ashes at the base of a monster sequoia in California a few years ago. I really wish I'd saved some so he could ride with me. That's a gremlin bell I can beleive in.
my spare key and fob are zip tied to the top lace eyelet of my riding boot.
Hope you carry a knife in your pocket too, like to see you hopping on one foot trying to stick the key in the lock. Guess you could take you boot off, but makes a funnier image the other way....
