I'm finding it creaks when I sit on it though, and the additional height adds stress to the plastic bucket, which doesn't line up as well as before. I've decided to go without, for now!Quezziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07335260844424157955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452024698082537423.post-90335082748414808282017-04-24T05:00:14.974-07:002017-04-24T05:00:14.974-07:00Oh, and provides some protection from inevitable f...Oh, and provides some protection from inevitable fuel spills, and finally, and key for me, allows you raise the pet carrier and prop it up with the gas cap so that if you overfill the tank you don't get gas in the pet carrier.David Massehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09346419242154545286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452024698082537423.post-25587939626889522322017-04-24T04:54:20.692-07:002017-04-24T04:54:20.692-07:00I'm pretty sure it supports the pet carrier an...I'm pretty sure it supports the pet carrier and helps to stabilize the fuel port tube thing, and may also provide a stable rest for the seat.

That way you can keep the plastic thing. About 4-5 washers does the trick. I think there's a post that explains. I'll see if I can find it.

If you do decide to go to Deadhorse, Adventure Cycleworks in Fairbanks will allow you to stash gear so you aren't heavily loaded. Unfortunately, I'll miss you when you pass through Fairbanks as I'll be in the lower-48. RichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.com
