Mike my handsome, thank you for not editing the tank slappers out, it's been a learning curve for us all, it stayed loaded all the way across Route 66, 2017 four laps of Tasmania, 1k miles NZ riders rally then by myself 2018 doing 3k miles North and South Island.
The 1995 NZ international on my "B" Rap we were continually overloaded with containers of water and fuel hanging off the back doing unsealed roads most of the time and literally every take off it wanted to tank slap but I was stronger then, it was great doing wild camping with Camita as first time round it was with the club & son Robert, ten weeks all told, glorious. Since 2020 I have difficulty getting it upright from the side stand and need help getting it off the rear but can put it on the rear with my leverage system, thank goodness I had a starter fitted in 2018.
