Luggage advise

[lloydie]

Or go the whole hog and do what I did a few years ago with a Kappa universal kit. This is from 2005 in Belgium:-

that's the nicest yellow one I've seen
The sun really sets it off .
I may be on the change

Sorry officer
The voices made me do it

you could always sell it, it sounds like you already have some buyers
i think it suits the bike really well and it would deffo make wheelies easier.......

I thought about selling it, but if I want to refit it I can and if I get another bike (in addition, I might add ) it might fit on there. I always thought it looked OK and hard luggage is great when you are touring as you can just lock up your helmet and leathers, put on some jeans and trainers and relax.

just proves that the main role for black is to act as a contrast to bring out the full glory of yellow

Animal/mattster : I just had a look on the Ventura website and the panniers look like urrrm ............... panniers, do they fit differently ?

tony.mon : I like the budget option but got a slight problem in that as soon as I reach for my bike keys my 15 year old daughters running for her leathers shouldn't complain though, she could be out with her chavvy mates, drinking and smoking !

Stratman : Veeeeery posh mate but out of my budget .

Cheers Tony

You need to look at the bike pack system and not the panniers.

Just hang a couple of Sainsburys carrier bags from the handlebars

[lloydie]

But if it's a black one use waitrose bags

I went down the route of beefing up the bodywork & bodging some pannier rests - photos on this old thread:

That Givi set doesn't look complete, on mine there is a bracket that sits under the seat at the sides, also see http://www.givi.co.uk/attachfile/conten ... n_251f.pdf

I have only used it with very light loads as i wonder about the effect of having much weight that far back.
