Tidy Cats scoopable mulitcat formula

I've had an empty litter bucket sitting in the laundry closet for 2 years waiting for this project.



It wouldn't be possible to mount it with the speedo directly over the headlight so I had to move things around. I started by relocating the ignition to the left trellis frame.



Which gave me room to move the speedo back several centimeters. I had to fab a mounting bracket that would attach to the handlebar and allow me to adjust the angle of the gauge.



Moving the speedo I was able to repurpose the original gauge mount as the windshield's mounting point, using a scrap piece of aluminum "L" bracket and I routed the wiring harness thru the ignition opening.



The white plasti-dip is a poor match to the rest of the paint, but this project cost me nada and it looks better than the windshield I made last month.

Sorry for not responding sooner, I've had drama around here since the last post. Anywho, here's a pic of the final product. Don't know why the image links are broken, I've never had problems linking to my facebook albums before.
