Kandaje Posted July 8, 2008 Share #1 Posted July 8, 2008 Greetings... A number of years ago, My mother sent me a watch that came in a really nice black domed leather box. It has 2 chrome snaps, and just screams Biker accessory... The watch, unfortunately was rather cheap - and didn't survive time - And I don't wear pimped out jewelry anyway - So now I've sat for hours - on the bike - just pondering WHERE and more importantly - HOW to mount it! It's 7.5" long, 3.75" wide, and 3.5" tall. It has a divider in the center which seperates it into 2 padded compartments. Each compartment is the perfect length for all the normal junk I carry in my 2 front pants pockets - Bic lighters, carmex, dental pick, rolling papers, fold up reading glasses etc... http://i26.tinypic.com/72ggad.jpg Any Ideas where this should properly go on an 89VR? I was just going to stick it on the right side - over my dead CB with Velcro but figured it couldn't hurt to ask. Someone might have a better idea. Besides - it's rather too tall for that - It would bump my hand during a U-turn... It's too tall to fit on the top cover, and besides, I have plans for a home-made tank bag. I also considerd the space over the ignition - twixt the bars - or possibly covering the Cruise control lights, or even on the travel bag - facing to the rear... If I had 2 of them - I'd put one on each side! But alas - Only the one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muffinman Posted July 8, 2008 Share #2 Posted July 8, 2008 I think it would be cool between the handlebars or if you ride solo alot on the trunk as a conversation piece. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pappa Bear Posted July 8, 2008 Share #3 Posted July 8, 2008 Jeff I think Wherever you put it on you bike it may have a hard time staying on, I wonder sometimes if you duck tape Mini on the back!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tx2sturgis Posted July 8, 2008 Share #4 Posted July 8, 2008 Ya gotta wonder about a guy who asks 5000 people where he should stick something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eck Posted July 8, 2008 Share #7 Posted July 8, 2008 the normal junk I carry in my 2 front pants pockets - Bic lighters, carmex, dental pick, rolling papers, fold up reading glasses etc... Heck, just roll one and sit there a while, you'll figure it out.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongobobny Posted July 8, 2008 Share #8 Posted July 8, 2008 The how part shouldn't be that difficult. Just go down to Sears and buy yourself some snap fasteners. They aren't that hard to put on, just make sure you have them lined up correctly on the bike... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kandaje Posted July 10, 2008 Author Share #9 Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) Greetings... Brian...you crack me up!:crackup: Yeah, I was prepared for that! Heck, just roll one and sit there a while, you'll figure it out.. Been doin' too much of that too... Oh well, Maybe I'll just keep it on my desk - where it's been living...
