600ss catch trays.

Have any of you lads organised or tried or fitted the catch tray yet..? im thinking universal tray but unsure wether it would fit on the inside or outside of the fairing..?

What plans do you guys have..?

Phil I was Brancatto engineering two hours ago and we had a lot of discussions about the race series, news on some of it will be announced once it has been run by the organising committe

As for the catch trays we had a good chat about them as Tony has already started constructing a mould for ones to fit a 600SS so before long he should have one available. Senna3 already has his name down for one

No, but if Neil's making one for the Monster, maybe Phil could contact him and see if he has plans for a SS one??

I'm getting my SS one from Sigma. Bear in mind that I am taking the side panels off so the fit will be pretty similar to the monster - you'll have to check whether the tray will fit inside the fairings if you plan to keep them on.

SS catch tray patternwork advancing rapidly at Classic Panels ( this is the Brancato Eng composite company).

Kevin P has kindly lent his SS for a trial fit.

I'll try to describe it: it's a new inside lower part of fairing, (exact contour) separate moulding, it extends beyond the present backedge of fairing sides, past the 2into 1 exh pipe junction.
(
Encasulated whithin the bottom, where the 2 metal brackets join the fairing halves, are 4 M6 'nuts'.
These are fluid proof.

The 2 brackets that join the fairing and well nuts are now redundant.

With fairing sides removed,the new tray, is placed under the engine, temporarily suspended by 2 rubber 'hanger loops', then both sides are replaced, bottom is shut and tray held tight by the 4 M6 fastners that used to hold before.

A 25mm id, rubber grommet acts as the removable wet weather drain.
Just at the stage where It is nearly ready to test for that 4 litre capacity.
Once that's done, a mould tool will be made, and mouldings can be produced.
Cost is probably going to be £60 although this is to be finalised.
(Purchasers of B/eng full race fairings will get it at 1/2 price)
Colours can be red/yellow/white/black
