Well yeah long story short i want to make one i remember thinking that looks cool but i can't seem to find it now? It was a bit of plastic pipe fuel line diameter with a cord threaded through it so he could grab the key to do the refuel without having to remove gloves?

 

its a shot in the dark i know....

I see youre planning to make up for (what i would think) is a small tank range on the KTM?

No lost time in fuel stops

I thought you were going to say he had a Skoda keyring

I didn't, but... I noticed a lot of racers with home made exhaust protectors last weekend made by passing a tiewrap through a length of fuel pipe wrapped round the exhaust. Seemed to work OK. I expect a keyring could be made the same way

Or an Aston Martin one?

Maybe .

He didnt that Aston he bought though. Was really disapointed with it.

I think he liked his lap around the TT track in that v12 one though haha.

I think iicrc it was a piece of string  thread through the pipe through the key then back through the pipe tied in a knot at the other end, the keys size stops it being pulled through the piece of pipe but the knot also stops the sting pulling through.

nope keyrings flop around and scratch your bike and YOKE i always just have the key no keyring until now, so thats why I'm thinking bit of rubber pipe possibly fluorescent fuel hose with some soft string = better than keyring and stops damage

could do would have to do it straight to the key because the ring would still flap around and on a flat yoke would tap against it, always liked them paracords tho seen one where it has 3 in 1 and it has like a flint for starting fires as well will try and find it the video they used to demo it though they actually used some sort of fuel to start it because the fire sprung into life like a car being blown up on a movie set haha

 

here we go knew i would find it

Thats pretty cool, might give it a bash, I still have the crappy dealer keyring on my key at the moment. 

Ive just got a rubber keyring

Me too. Always kept bike keys on a rubber keyring with nothing else on it. Zero possibility of scratching.

Going to pet shop tomorrow, see if I can get some thin rope from go outdoors next door (if they let me in with Vinnie the dog ) and give it a bash.

Order some proper para cord off eBay makes it even better then because you can unravel it and actually use it for stuff
