I was a little worried too, but each of the ties are rated for like 5 lbs, and i used 5 of them. I'm hardly putting any weight in the case either; just a change of shoes and sometimes my lunch for work.bigbropgo wrote:that turned out really nice. it still scares me though, the faith in zip ties. in the hardware store the other day i spotted some small hooks with threads on the long side. thought they would work great in this application. great lookin ride.
yes, definitely would like to see a pic of the clamps you used. looking for clamps and stuff is a bit overwhelming for me at the big box stores, so i went with what was easiest to find. seems pretty solid for my use, but if i were putting in anything heavier, i would be concerned too.mattgordon wrote:

Yup, we have been a 2 Mini family too! Here's the clamps, rubberized and wont harm the finish on your rack (your scooter's rack!).oryx wrote:yes, definitely would like to see a pic of the clamps you used. looking for clamps and stuff is a bit overwhelming for me at the big box stores, so i went with what was easiest to find. seems pretty solid for my use, but if i were putting in anything heavier, i would be concerned too.mattgordon wrote:

yep, 2 minis and 1 scooter and 1 motorcycle. not the most practical set-up, but the most fun one for us.
I picked one up last year at Goodwill for $2.38. I never got around to finishing the train case/top case project though ...polianarchy wrote:Ah, I love how you repurposed the the old train case! the entire aesthetic is very cool looking.
thanks everyone! when i get the prima pipe installed (this friday, if not storming), i'll post updated pics with that!dmerzbac wrote:You've got a great look going on there. Nice job!
yep, it's the stock seat. very comfy.beeporama wrote:Thanks for sharing! It's hard to find pics as I eagerly await delivery of my BlackJack. Is that the stock seat? (It looks different than the promo picture in the Genuine catalog, but, the promo picture also doesn't include the badge...)

I should be getting the prima put on this friday (weather permitting). dealer wanted me to wait after break-in period, until 400 mi service to put it on and re-jet. it's going to be so awesome!MikieTaps wrote:it looks like there is no prima pipe on there....

It's designed for 1 person. You could always switch it out to the stock buddy seat, that's for 2 people.EnjoyRC wrote: is the stock seat big enough for two?
or did they only build them for single riders?
