  1. Hello all. Just found your news group. I'm wondering if any of you guys know
    the parts to build your own accessory bar or can post links of companies
    that sell an accessory bar? I don't have much real estate on the handlebar
    mount right now and I'm thinking of putting the bell and turn signals on the
    main bar and add the GPS, bike light, s/w radio, cellphone, pda, and
    walkie-talkie on the add-on accessory bar.

    Thanks in advance.

  5. Yes I am new to the news group just having found it recently. I like to bike
    but I also like to keep my gear with me. I sometimes so geocaching, check up
    on my schedule on my pda, and such. I prefer to carry the gear on the bike
    while I ride so I can stay in touch while biking. Now I know some people are
    minimalists on the bike and I respect that. I just like to keep my gadgets
    handy so that anywhere I am I can stay in touch and also have the tools to
    keep informed or perhaps aid someone else. Some would call it a "souped up
    setup" but I prefer to call it a tactical setup.

    Please try to STAY ON TOPIC on the assessory bar mount and if you can't
    offer any positive or constructive advice then please don't reply then. I
    remember seeing at a bike shop abuot a year ago that they have a bike with
    an extended extra accessory bar on the bike. The CSR told me that someone
    came up with the idea to build a bike witht hat extra bar to hold the extra
    gear. If memory serves me correctly, that bike was not cheap either. It was
    about $1500 CDN I think. I'll have to check the bike shop out later when I'm
    in the area.

    Thank you. I do recall seeing pages like that before on my searches.
    Interesting DIY setup. I'm considering taking the 3v/6W (I think it was
    3v/6W if not then it's the other way around) dymano I have and running that
    to a SLA battery so that when I'm biking I can charge the battery at the
    same time then have a switch on the unit so that at night I can say hook
    that charged battery to a HID setup light up things or perhaps make a
    multiple plug setup allowing me to plug other devices in to run them if I'm
    say camping or something. I like the battery in the bottle idea. I may
    actually start that project but I'll probably use a quick connect connector
    so if I wanted to take the battery offI don't have to remove the bike light
    as well. I'll have to check the electronic store on that.

    Thanks for the help and ideas so far people.

    Here's our little FAQ, might be useful to you.

    Run what you brung ... MRE heaters at night, M18's for day ... I am
    sure he will have room on his bars for those.

    And of course he should make room for a couple of AN-M8 HC's or M18's
    for cover ... just incase the LZ is hot.
