Rallye navigation bracket photo thread

I am having my riding partner Cevin, a machinist, fab up a bracket using plans from a couple of sources including Tony Schatt's



and I thought It may serve us rally racers well to have a photo thread of navagation brackets... photos or links to photos or plans, wherevever they are posted for posterity and a guide for the noob.. So I will start with a photo from the 660 rally and will add my "banana" flavor as soon as it is finished.

Feel free and please add to the thread ... Michael

Thanks @cevquit

Mine;

Looking good chaps

Here's mine, just finished adding the last bit of nav kit to it tonight, a Tony Schattat repeater.

Here's mine before the repeater was fitted....

..and here it is completed and having just been out to test the new repeater, all nav components with backlights working...

Hey: great setup, do you have multiple sensors for the ICO's, or do you splice one?

thanks
Jack

Hi Jack,

Cheers! One magnet and two sensors - but you gotta make sure they pick up the magnet on the same arc if you get what I mean? Works well and they clock up in unison perfectly.

Had to drill an extra hole through the Brembo.

Is that the way you are typically routing the paper through the MD?, i.e. not using the upper top roller?

Not really messed with that yet, s**t, thats totally wrong

Some factory bikes












and mine

are you sure you won't get lost with all that gear onboard??

This is the one from Rally Raid Products Uk www.rally-raidproducts.co.uk/ Probably could be adapted to a different bike.

Another Pic

That actually is a KTM (or vendor) part or copy

Copy of the KTM part, last one I saw from RR-UK was a lot thinner then the KTM one and broke of within 2 days..

The KTM ones (when used with a TT roadbook) do tend to break as well where you mount the bottom part of the TT roadbook.

All looks nice and sturdy, but it does flex a lot within days...



Here is a pic from the 'Ape';

Q: How do you make that ERTF repeater work? Does it have Garmin capability as opposed to only capable of being triggered by the ERTF UNIK GPS?

Cheers

Here is the simple and easy way to do it:

Handlebar mount, not frame mount. Some drawbacks, but much less complicated, lighter, cheaper, and fewer parts to break.

A top-clamp mounted piece I made up on my XR to train for the Dakar, and for Rally Schools. Used this setup for years without a hitch.

From a Mecasystem KTM 530 EXC kit:

If you are making your own frame-mounted setup, I recommend welding some brackets on the front of the bike's frame like this as an attachment point.

(Those of you who have done otherwise know why.)
