My intention is a tool holder but I like the tractor manual idea too

I am not convinced that the cable ties will be strong enough so I may replace some with large jubilee clips (similar but metal and screwed tight). Another problem is that it need to be removed to change the oil.
As PEATBOG said the front will be light. Even worse when SWAMBO gets on the back. Hence the tool tube at the front. I need to buy/make some front crash bars to fit luggage/spare fuel beside the tank.
I am currently looking at Chile and Argentinian Patagonia for a future trip, deos anyone know if it is possible/feasable to ride through central America at the present ?
Anyway I just decided to fit my TCK80s tonight and when putting ther front tyre on noticed that the wheel is not symetrical and at that point realised I had not made a note of which way around it went. DOH. The boss holding the bearings on each side are of different lengths. In the end I figured it out from photographs from the Yamaha site. For anyone else that changes a front tyre. as a mental note, the long boss and the long collar are both on the left.
