Would this help eliminate or ease how touchy the throttle can be @ times? Did not take long & I can drive it smoothly even on rough but I do notice the 1st time any one else drives the machine they end up just short of a case of whip lash. Especially if short & can not rest their heel on the floor. If this will help would be interested in where to get one.
Thanks.
Yes it helps.

I decided to go ahead and try and alternative method of carrying a spare tire, jack, and fuel can by using the Honda bed extender accessory as a platform. The Kolpin bar just wasn't going to work out for me with anyone in back seats. The way I did it still leaves me room for a cooler, etc behind the back two seats.

Mounting, I used two, 2"x 5/16" x 4" Ubolts for the fuel mount and spare carrier with nylock nuts. To get things snug cut 1.25" plastic conduit sections to snap over bed extender tubing wrapping pieces in gorilla tape for grip and finish protection.
In addition to the Bed extender used the Quickshot verticle spare carrier with built-in jack. Got it from RMATV.COM here:
Pro Armor Quickshot Universal Tire and Accessory Vertical Mount | UTV | Rocky Mountain ATV/MC
I also went with the 3 gal rotopax and quick mount also from RMATV.COM.

I mounted everything up and went for a shakedown ride everything stayed put and held up to rough terrain just fine. If you,want full access the bed extender still quick releases with everything still mounted, heavy but it works for me. Here is what the finished product looks like. I will mount my chainsaw on the left opposite of the rotopax, tired of being turned around by downed trees.

Idk how i got loop in mount. I meant kolpin lol
OK I was wondering what you meant. I will use the Kolpin mounting plate, quick detachable mount and chainsaw boot bolted to the bed extender just like the rotopax is mounted, but on the angled drivers side.

Wow, what an informative build thread, well done and very well explained. Thanks I will be coming back and doing a few things you have done. Would you happen to have any new pics of the gear rail with rotopax and spare tire?
Thanks again
Danny
@vitulla see my alternative method decided against Kolpin rail and used Honda bed extender for the mounting platform bottom of page 18 in this thread.

Ok so for the heatshield install I removed the seat bottom, seat back, and the plastic that spans the gap between the two.

All stripped down looks like this.
View attachment 19196

Fitted front and side edges leaving 2" material tucked down front and sides held by OEM push rivets. Trimmed back and passenger sides, left center full length to fold down in back to double thickness between engine and center seat.
View attachment 19197

All tucked in place.
View attachment 19198


Center plastic piece back in place.
View attachment 19199

Seat back in place.
View attachment 19200


Bottom back in all done.
View attachment 19201

To check sub transmission I cut out a 8"x8" flap then took a scrap piece 3" longer and wider glued to top of flap. Simply lift up to check oil level then let it rest on top seat holds firmly in place.

Material used was this:
ESP Low-E® EZ-Cool Car Insulation Kit(Includes 40 Sq. Ft Insulation, 10' Foil Tape): Heat and Sound Automotive Insulation For Your Car Restoration Projects - - Amazon.com

Enough for two machines for $33.

Thanks for the tutorial. Did mine today. Looks good.

Not sure this is totally related to this thread, but where is the best place to get a matching wheel/tire to use as spare? I like this setup a lot! Can the bed extender still be flipped up into the bed? I know it wouldn't flip all the way but looking for enough to close the tailgate, for room in the toy hauler

Yes you can flip it up enough with everything attached and close tailgate for transport. I prefer RMATV.COM for typical accessories, tires, wheels, etc. For Honda parts and accessories I use procaliber.com from there you can get an OEM machined matching wheel for around $100 or an aftermarket machined wheel for about $80 from RMATV.COM

I am planning on having a total of twelve rockers divided into two gangs of six per row of which two will be a double port 3.2 amp USB power port with red backlighting giving me (4) total powered USB ports for charging phones, GoPro, GPS, etc. the remaining 10 switches will perform the various electrical functions all through a Cooper Bussman power distribution module, this module has an 6 gauge main Positive power line & 8 gauge Negative grounding line both to the secondary Oddessey 925 Battery, then there is (5) output wires with 15 amp fuses without relays for running the minor stuff like pod lights, horn, etc. There is (5) 35 amp relay lines with 30 amp fuses for each line / relay with a 14 gauge wire to go to the switched power to close the relay and (5) 10 gauge wires coming out of the fused relay to power bigger accessories, Light bars, Stereo, etc.

Here is the power distribution module as received, all prewired and includes all necessary items like heat shrink and butt connectors, etc. View attachment 8435
Here is a detail of the top with cover off and underneath detail:
View attachment 8436 View attachment 8437

Looking under the hood for a place to mount this PDM there was not a location I liked with the metal standoff attached to the Bussman PDM so I removed the standoff then you have the prewired bundle coming from underneath so that negates a flush mount. Then the light went off that the large black cover that covers the air pre-cleaner and intake tube could house this PDM in a recessed cutout in a very tidy fashion.

OEM under the hood untouched, then black air intake cover removed:
View attachment 8438 View attachment 8441

Dropping in the 2nd battery, note the added L connectors on terminals:
View attachment 8439 View attachment 8440

Intended location for PDM once cover is on & PDM setting in place of hole to be cut out:
View attachment 8442 View attachment 8443
Roughed cutout in black cover for PDM insertion from underneath & 3/4" hole on side for all wiring to exit.
View attachment 8444 View attachment 8445

PDM screwed in place with wires pulled through & lid secured in place. All neat and tidy without using up any additional space under the hood.
View attachment 8446 View attachment 8447

I will seal around the PDM mounting holes with black RTV silicone and as shown you do not lose any space where you can mount anything else needed. The only other spot big enough (that suited me) with the PDM standoff attached is where I want to mount the Battery Isolator which I will not have until 12/30/15. As viewing the bottom right picture with the cap on the PDM it does interfere with the hood slightly and needs to come down 3/8 of an inch on the left side where the hood lies with the body. Thankfully there is 1" of clearance underneath the PDM cover so a little work with the heat gun will reshape this so it doesn't touch the hood when secured down.

Well time to start making a couple dozen Jumper wires for all my lighted switches, no rest for the wicked. :p

Do you have a part number for this PDM?

How is this setup working for you so far? would another rotopax 2gl fit on the other side of the spare tire? think the spare tire could be lowered down to the next bar on the bed extender to allow easier access to the bed area, you know for cooler access? lol

Working fine, yes a second rotopax will fit. I would not go lower on tire, get in a bad spot could drag, but if you are a high plains drifter no hills, rock on .

Great idea! I think I'm gonna copy it.
That Pro Armor mount got terrible reviews on Amazon. Problems with durbility of velcro straps and some complained about the weight. It's listed as being 6.5lbs - so not sure what thats about.

I would say there is a "2" missing on that Amazon description, my guess is 27 lbs plus tire and wheel mine is about 70 lbs. total as mounted on the bed extender but everything is staying tight. Haven't had to mess with it after approximately 100 trail miles. If you don't put straps through the buckels correctly I could see it slipping loose.

Now that I am going on longer rides frequently got tired of the OEM setbelts rubbing on my neck / collar bone area and wanted something more comfortable.

Since I am completely happy with the BEARD 4 point restraints with automotive latch that I have in my P500, I added a pair to the front of my P1K5D. Keeping the center seat belt for car or booster seats for now.

Installation was very easy, on drivers side behind padded headrest is a hole already between the two mounting bolts. There I used a single 3/8" x 1.25" bolt to secure the upper harness mounts together to backside of headrest mount. On both sides used the OEM location and bolts for the bottom harness mounts. The passengers side top is a little different but simple drilled a 3/8" hole in the same place as on drivers side and used a 2.5" long 3/8" bolt due to the size and shape of the OEM metal headrest bracket.

These padded harnesses are VERY comfortable as well as keeping you put on rough terrain making the ride even more enjoyable. In case of rolling the machine these will keep you in place even if you end up on your roof.
