Thanks Andy for the great feedback. I think I will
try to install the ones you recommend in the first
photo.
I had wanted to go with an over the shoulder belt, but
I wasn't sure if any Triumph people had any experience
with Andover's belt applications.
I had heard through some vendors recently that they
were a bit dissatified with Moss' inertia belts and I
didn't really want to pay the import fees to get
Securons.
I'll order them and let you know how I get on.
Thanks so much for your kind help.
