BUT

The luggage leaving the bike was caused by getting taken off by a car coming across a HALT sign the previous day and not realising that the accident had fractured one of the mountings, I have never had any other problems with hard luggage and much prefer it to the hassle of fixing soft luggage to the bike alleviating the possibility of dangling bungees or straps getting tangled up in the rear wheel.Hard luggage just bounces down the road
My bad

Well new drive kit was ordered yesterday. I need to get the wheel off and a new tyre fitted. The one on there was a Pirelli Rosso and I want to replace with similar so probably go for the Rosso II.
