The rear battery tray and storage compartment was then installed along with the cleaned up brake light and repainted indicators (black Hemerite).







Next was back to the 3-in-1 mill to make a rear brake torque arm. I ordered one from America but if failed to arrive so I decided to make my own. A simple task of cutting out the right shape from a bit of aluminium plate, drilling the mounting holes and then milling a little pocket down the centre for looks.







It looks good on the bike but I may have another go at it as I'm not 100% on this one as it was slightly longer then the travel of the mills bed which meant that I had to reposition the piece and the depth of the cut changed slightly over the distance. Again, I'm reaching the machines limitations.







But one part I made was fairly straight forward and I'm happy with, and this was just a couple of spacers for the ignition barrel. As I'm using the TCR top yoke the barrel would sit very proud of the yoke and the steering lock would not engage.







I think that TCR did supply some spacers for this but obviously I didn't get them. So it was a simple task to make my own, just a case of picking an appropriate size of the OD and ID of the tube and parting both off at the correct length.







And next I will start to explain the delay.
