Cheers,

The can takes up a big chunk of useful storage space under the seat...

Looking at the canister it has 3 x 6.5 OD plastic connector stubs sticking out, with two pipes connected and the third connector has a rubber 'thimble' cover on it. AL7 has a plastic extension behind rear seat with rear light and the number plate hanging on, the can would cable tie up under that, but would get road crap on it. I have some 6.3mm silicone rubber tubing already and can get 1/4" barbed tube joining pieces and some spring hose clips off fleabay ( can use cable ties to clamp unpressurised hose onto barbed joiner, but a bit shonky ). Will have another looky to see if a cleaner place to mount it.
