Last year, I picked up a tank cover/base and tank bag for a very good price.

The BAGSTER Rider/Stunt back was too wide upfront to make riding the bike comfortable at speed through twisties

Sold the bag last week, which funded the purchase of a BAGSTER Newsign "with wallet closed"....:tongue:

Much better tailored for the RC51

Handy top pocket

Rain? Who cares!

The bag has backpack straps (neatly tucked away) and an attachement that allows strappingf a helmet to it (not that I would, but I could)

Nah......   I did the job prior to watching the race on the telly :lurk::goofy:

 

 

Will take her down to Luxemburg in 1,5 weeks time for the "1,000 curves" rally.

350 clicks route, 2,500 participants. This year will take us around Nurburg, pretty sure we will NOT be riding the Ring itself...

 

Ok I could ride the Tail of the Dragon 3 times and call it a day.....

Will put these to the test for the rally. Picked them up a few years ago, yet to be used...

Tent, sleeping bag, mattresses, bottle of single malt and a fresh pair of underpants should fit.

You mean Mugello?

 

When you got those RT cartridge emulators did you swap springs too?

Mugello, Misano, Monza....  them Italians all sound the same to me... :goofy:

 

 

and yes, I had Racetech furnish me with a set of springs as well.

Think Tail of the Dragon/Smokey backroads.

375 clicks through the Eifel.

 

It was a good day.
