The delivery of that engine guard was delayed, so it took longer (/ω)
Genuine Katanas are rare at our shop, but variants are plentiful.
Today I’m making small parts to install the motorcycle drive recorder EDR21-Gα!
I was torn between the Daytona Mivue™ M760D, but I felt Mitsuba was still the better choice.
Motorcycle drive recorders should get even better, but with this type of product, we can’t wait from an insurance perspective.
The issue with the sidestand being hard to deploy.
I realized later that this probably isn’t for the Inazuma.
The kickstand should normally be on the sole side, so it shouldn’t be hard to deploy.
Lots of mysteries with a used bike.
Looking closely, it appears to have been reattached.
I’ll try not to think too hard about it.
I bent a 5mm round rod quickly with the bender
I made it wide so you can deploy it with either your toes or heels.
That’s how the sidestand is done! I’ll paint it black afterward.
Now let’s move on to today’s main work.
Am I the only one who thinks installing this at a mass-market shop is impossible?
MITSUBA Motorcycle-specific drive recorder, dual front and rear cameras plus GPS high-spec model [Part number] EDR-21GA
After all, a Kawasaki license plate holder is the way to go!
13091-1913 ← You can buy it from Monotaro too.
After much deliberation, I made something like this.
I’ve added a rib down the center for reinforcement.
The stock neck is short, so I’ll make it longer later (‘ω’)ノ
That’s the rear camera done. I think it’s best to keep things neat and tidy.
I’ll do a full stroke to find the camera mounting location.
It probably won’t compress that much, but just to be safe.
I’ve seen people not open the cap and just tighten it down hard with tie-downs before, but…
I think that’s actually more work. Loosening the cap is gentler on both people and things.
And after much more deliberation, it ended up looking like this.
Full stroke is no problem, and it doesn’t obstruct the appearance, so it looks stylish.
Front camera done!
I’ll make a switch bracket.
It’s a switch you want to press easily, so sticking it on the top bridge? That’s just not it.
Maintenance is also compromised. Mounting it at hand level seems simplest to me.
Color rod to round rod to plate—the usual fail-safe combination that never goes wrong (*’▽’)
This is how it mounts. Of course, there’s no problem even when you pull the choke lever (ΦωΦ)
Random tangent series… this cap can be installed as-is (*’▽’)
It’s for myself, but… to be continued
