Looks good. But you will want it on the other side of the bike, so you can put out wire clockwise.

The winder is set up to gather wire anti-clockwise.

Just what I was thinking

Will these guys be any cheaper for rappa pre loaded reels than rappa? Tried to get some discount from rappa on a whole new mains system but not interested in giving discount anymore Kiwikit seem a lot more keener.

You can try, but as there are only two outlets, that work closely together, I don't fancy your chances much.

If you have a RAPPA reeling system, then you are tied to their reels. If you are happy with hand reels, then you have more choice. I haven't priced Kiwikit wire recently, but they were always half a world away on pricing (see what I did there?) when I looked before.

Don't you just turn the reel over then?

Clockwise / anti clockwise round the field not the reel!

Thanks. Not sure if we'll matter to much for my use but wouldn't take much to swap it over.

Hi, just looking up these rappa winders, are Hondas with the single swing arm suspension man enough for a winder or should I be going for IRS?

Gallagher rep told me they are bringing out their own winder later this year

Plenty of the straight axle type will have been used for rappas over the years.
They cope ok. Though the local Honda dealer did comment the fencing machines are hard on bikes.
It's a lot of weight. You want a decent sized bike if on steeper ground.

Black wheeled 420 handled it fine here although the bike was crap it handled the Rappa ok. Yam with IRS is much nicer fencing in every aspect plus you can turn at the end and don’t need to go through Paddington like you do with those Honda’s

Has anyone managed to set a winder up working off a Jimny or similar?
