A Few F3 Farkles

[SpyderGTL]

Had the chance to install a few items on the F3 today - a Nelson Rigg CL-1045 tank bag and a Butler mug. A few more things to install...





By the way, with the seat removed, the rectangular tube in the center of the picture below is an easy place for things like, say a pocket knife, to fall down into! [emoji15] It wouldn't hurt to cover that thing up when you take the seat off!

Nice looking set-up :thumbup:

How did you install the rear of the tank bag?

@BeRight - that's ram mount for my phone. I plan to mount a Garmin GPS at the center of the bars, similar to the RT location.

@Yazz - the tank bag came with three straps - two with a loop at one end and a hook at the other, and one long one with a hook at each end. The nominal installation is to wrap the long strap around the bike's tree and pick up the front attach points with each hook and run the loop end straps around the frame and hook them to the back of the bag. I switched the installation and ran the long strap under the back end of the black plastic tank cover and picked up the back two hook attach points. The two loop straps wrapped around the back end of the dash mount arches and hooked up the forward attach points. I had to take the seat off and remove the 2 bolts at the back of the tank cover plastic in order to lift it up enough to run the long strap underneath it.

Thank you! Now I know what to look for in a tank bag...

I like the look, but have always hated the damage they do to the bikes finish, just using a backpack these days.
