glasgow Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Many thanks for Jonathan in making sure I receive the cansters in prombt time before my holiday. Here is how I fitted the 3 cansters http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5490/9228129237_b6b7de8e1a_c.jpg http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3686/9230915136_85822335cc_c.jpg http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5462/9228134921_43f129560b_c.jpg I used plenty of cable ties to fix the cansters to the chassis tubes via the upper and lower brackets (already come attached to the cansters). I also used a couple of extra cable ties around the whole canster for added security in case the main brackets fail. I also put some rubber pads between the chassis tube and the cansters to reduce the cansters movements. The photos also shows pocket tags on each canster to write down the content. The canster above the screen washer bottle is tilted up and i will use it for oil or coolant spare bottle. The position of this canster will also help in fixing the screen washer bottle in place as I previously had on of these bottles flying while driving on motorway. Did a few miles "harsh driving" and the three cansters are rock steady in place Thanks again for Jonathan Ahmed Edited by - Glasgow on 7 Jul 2013 16:15:11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Jonathan Kay Posted July 7, 2013 Author Member Share Posted July 7, 2013 They are in my garage and today I've been emailing early applicants who haven't got in touch with me yet. There wasn't any import duty this time! Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregs79 Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Am I too late for these? Are there any spares from people who haven't got in touch with you yet?! :-) Edited by - Gregs79 on 7 Jul 2013 18:59:53 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted July 7, 2013 Author Member Share Posted July 7, 2013 The current batch of 30 is already oversubscribed. But if people keep saying how many they want we might get to another batch... Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregs79 Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 I'd be interested in 3 at that price. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willie. Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I'd be interested in 3...but I'd need them early August (Going touring). I'll BM Jonathan to see what the chances are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willie. Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Further to my post above, I've emailed Jonathan and understand that the current order (Which he has received and is getting organised to send) has already all been taken...and a reserve list on too. It's a long shot, but as I'm at the bottom of the list, if anyone has changed their mind or is in no panic and it suits them to wait to the next batch (Assuming there will be another batch), could you please let Jonathan or myself know? I'll stick a post in wanted aswell. I wouldn't have time pre-tour to wait for the next batch, so I could end up having to go for the eBay Tool Tube versions which cost 3 times the price ☹️ That's the penalty for not being organised enough I suppose.

Member Jonathan Kay Posted July 24, 2013 Author Member Share Posted July 24, 2013 I'm just working through the last few of this batch. Costs for this batch were: £174 for 30 = £5.80 No import duty Envelope £0.24 Postage £5.20 whether it's for one or two Total £11.24 for one Total £17.04 for two There are a few requests on the reserve list. I'm happy to buy another batch of 30 once there are nearly that many needed. So let me know how many you need by posting in this thread. NB: There wasn't any import duty this time, but there may be next time. Jonathan PS: Please put up photos showing where and how you've mounted them.

Member Jonathan Kay Posted August 8, 2013 Author Member Share Posted August 8, 2013 Thanks. That's about 11 requested and I expect the next batch will be 30 again. I'll order once we get near to that. Just waiting to hear from the last person for the current batch: you know who you are... Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
