That looks good mate, thanks for that.
I like the aluminium strap too, the ideal mounting point for the SV, unfortunately the XT600 doesn't have anything quite so convenient, so I will have to bolt into the rear subframe at the grab handle and use the rear pillion footpeg bolt or the bolt above holding the rear plastics, as the second mounting point, then brace the frames against each other under the rear subframe and above the rear wheel to stop them bending in-the-way with weight.
I'm essentially going to copy this design, if an expert has already done it, why re-invent the wheel?
Did you use stainless steel tubing or mild steel tubing? If mild steel did you just prime and paint them? I don't want to go to the expense of powdercoating when I could repaint once a year for the price of a can from Halfords.
