Tenere Storage Mod

Have just finished a 5.6 litre storage mod for the Tenere. A permanent solution to store a number of important items, like tyre levers, rain suit additional tools, first aid kit, spare tubes.
Used the bracket from the stock exhaust, epoxy, Kevlar and Carbon fibre cloth. Its light and very stong.
Just need to do the lid.

With the back shock completely depressed there is still 70mm of clearance.
In the photo's it looks like its touching the exhaust but there is at least 15mm gap.
The finish is not perfect but adequate, at least now I can improve the mould and was using a flash so looks worse than it is.
It cannot readily be seen behind the exhaust.
