This morning I realized that I didn't actually take a very good angle on this shot. I'll get better ones later. Hey, it was late when I finally finished puzzling through the non-existent assembly instructions on the racks. Gimme a break.

That bag looks just like a jacket, where can I get one?

Yeah, yeah. But there's a Givi E360 underneath it, I swear!

Maybe your bad was cold and needed a jacket?

They sell new seals for that inspection cover for the primary chain. Don't cost much.

The angle isn't the problem. What mounting racks did you use?

I used this kit from TwistedThrottle

http://www.twistedthrottle.com/trade/productview/3 744/474

They work really well, but the assembly instructions basically consist of

Step 1:
Put the racks on your bike

It was a fun Wednesday evening to figure out, but I couldn't be happier with the results. And I got a brand new set of panniers with racks for about half what the factory set costs.

The factory side racks cost $210 new. I picked them up, a used set of factory bags for $200, and a rear case and rack from another BadWebber for $75...$485 and it's all factory stuff! : )


Where's the better pics???

Well some of us aren't as resourceful as you are ; )

And besides, I like the red reflectors.

And the better pics will have to wait until Friday. I randomly got sent to San Diego for three days. Boo for no riding : (
