i want a small pelican case to stick under the passenger seat in my zx to use as a sealed glovebox. just have to take some measurements i guess

 

These are actually pictures I believe of Todd's bike, and for some reason I have always kept them in my photobucket album.







One thing I did run into, is that the case would over a couple of rides twist from being straight with the bike, so I got rid of the quick release pins and added some bolts withsome self lockingnuts, and then used a dremel to cut off the excess bolt length.I also keep a cleaning rag so stuff doesn't rub on the bolts on the inside. Hope this helps. The case was only about $25.00 If you do get one and do some bumpy trail riding, make sure to pack some rags for padding so stuff in there doesnt bounce around. Plus you can us them to keep your bike clean on the trail........I know I'm sick that way.

 

Ok on the fuel bottles...The Adell clamps is what I was after. Thanks for the info and pics.

Is that the big expandable model that gets taller as needed or just as tall as the picture? How much was it and where did you buy it?
Thanks,
