Engine Guards and Coolant Bottle Relocation

Do you still have the original tank to put back? It's got to look better than clamping a tank to the bars.

Six months or so ago, I fitted a Weapon-R 24 oz coolant recovery bottle to the backside of the radiator and it fit great. Unfortunately, I just fitted Triumph engine dresser bars (crash bars) and the previous location for the coolant bottle is no longer available.

My thoughts are to somehow attach the coolant bottle to the inside of the left crash bar. The question is how?

Any ideas?

For the short term, I may just run to the parts store and get some hose clamps and tie it onto the bar. At least that will get me back on the road until one of you brilliant customizers can come with a suggestion.

TDragger,
I used an old aluminum canteen and put it in the underseat air box.

Yankee ingenuity is an American English reference to the self-reliance of early colonial settlers of New England, United States. It describes an attitude of make-do with materials on hand. It is inventive improvisation, adaptation and overcoming of dire straits when faced with a dearth of materials.

Skip, I've just made you an honorary Yankee.
