Strapping a motor to the seat of my bike

[Steam]

Tonight in half an hour I'm going to pick up a DR125 engine, and I'm going to try to strap it to the pillion seat. Can't be that heavy can it??
Hmm... wish me luck!

probabilly no heavier than a pillion.....long as it doesnt fall off

Gonna use 4 ratchet tiedowns, old blanket to protect the seat, should be sweet.
But at times like this I do pine for 4 wheels somewhat.
Getting the 3m curtain rail home yesterday was a bit of fun! Ahem.

good luck would be incline to put it in a box and then strap it down...but lay it down to lower the centre of gravity

lets us know how you get on

Back now, hey that wasn't hard at all! What a tiny wee thing, I didn't even notice it was there once it was tied on right.
I thought it would be a vast chunk of metal but no, easy as pie.
I am embarrassed I started this thread now, I thought it would be an epic but it was a non event.

Bryce is the dude. His new business looks awesome too.

I once road from wellington to palmy with two sportbike tyres round my waist. I couldn't move at all on the bike and had to sit bolt upright and do all corrections by counter steering (even the low speed stuff).

I'm disappointed, I thought you were trying to makeyour bike go quicker with two engines by the title!... any pics of what it looked like?

[Whynot]
