[QUOTE="Hello Kitty, post: 941286, member: 19029"] Oh that is perfect! Thanks Peter and PF! Thank you for the warning, Skooter. I have a tendency to do this, so reminding me often is not a bad idea. That was another plus of the GS. The downside of that, of course, is that then you have a ton of shit to pick through before finding what you really need to find. Less is more. Yeah, I think that tail plate will be perfect. Do ya'll have a rough idea of the weight I can safely put back there? If I keep it to a small bag with just some clothes, I imagine it will be fine, right? but knowing a weight to keep it under would be nice. As for the drilling, Vern printed out a thread on here, I think, or maybe from Dale's site, with nice step by step on drilling the main tank. Haven't delved into it, but it looked like clear instructions. Drilling a hole in the tank is always terrifying. If there was ever a time to not fuck up, that would be it. Well, I suppose there are others, but that's a biggie in my little corner of the universe. Thanks for the tips. She'll make he LD debut in Ely later this year :) [/QUOTE]
