I was thinking of getting that done, wouldn't mind getting some a bit smaller while im at it, so dont look as numb. Mind you cash tight at mo, so will prob just get them moved first and replaced laters.

This is what I got for the sprint (1,2):

I can get a 2 man tent inside the bag :)


1. In addition to the small panniers that it had with it.
2. On good advice from old hands......

Isnt that stuff mega expensive? i looked at that for the sv, i like the way the pillion could use it as a backrest.
I have a trumpet rack on order atm which im attaching a 46l top box to, should help me carry some stuff ;)

It is easy, just drill 2 holes and bolt them in

There must be some pics floating about of my bike, have a look at that. If you want smaller indis they are less than tenner from vehicle wiring products. I am making big order from there soon so can get an extra set if you want some and save on shipping

'Tis a bit I guess. £280 I paid for the sprints set up.

You can do a top box for a hundred quid less but the scaffolding is a bit bulkier if you want to use 50 litres of storage :)
