I believe someone here once said this bike was built around the horn and battery tray

hahaha, yes i remember that quote.....I just put in the battery carrier......will go oil tank and lines next since I think the horn will block access to the lines of the oil filter.

but so far, so good....

here is a picture before I put in the battery carrier.

That sounds a about right replacing my battery carrier was a b****d as for the horn when I replaced mine it went inside my non-standard seat unit at the back!
