Fuel tank wall mount and fork cap installer

More real-world time and money savers as the endlessly creative ‘ Workshop Meisters ’ at JIMS and their fellow travellers strive for workshop perfection . Installing the fork tube caps requires compressing the spring while rotating the cap . With the forks mounted on the bike , this task can become almost impossible due to the limited work area and with the required effort needed to compress the spring and start the fine thread on the cap . This new JIMS fork cap installation tool for 49 mm fork tubes allows the technician to install the fork tube caps on the motorcycle without removing other parts , and can be done in minutes . When the fuel tank is removed from the bike , it can create storage issues . A tank left on a work bench or otherwise exposed can typically create a disaster by being knocked to the floor or damaged on the bench . “ The concept of our fuel tank storage was brought to us by Kevin Baxter at Pro Twin Performance . Our fuel tank wall mount ’ s base is to be mounted to a stud on a wall or other suitable mounting surface , where the fuel tank can be easily and safely mounted out of harm ’ s way . The hanger justifies its value by knowing the cost of a damaged tank can be significantly more . Additionally , fuel tanks can be displayed for show and ‘ wall art ’ purposes .”
