Thanks Joe...The boxes are pelican cases from a company call Safety & Rescue....google them for their products.....they are excellent and tough as goats gonads!! I got some pics on the ADV site but heres a shot of my mods



We will definately get together for a fang some time....you in Wairarapa aint ya? I'm in Hawkes Bay. Would be great for a guided tour of some of your favourite spots one weekend!

Oh an 950's never ride in any ones shadow...dust maybe....but never shadows!!

[junkmanjoe]

oh i thought you where higher up the island...

well hell yer you only a few hrs away,, bet you know a few good coast roads out kidnappers way..

so best we sort something out one these weekends..

my boxes are a little closer, poped in to today, latches have been fitted, and tie rails on top have been done, my mate has started a new boat so i have to fit in between that new job.
