So, with the arrival of the new Moto Guzzi stick on emblem to cover the Hepco Becker ones on the bags my bike is now ready to tour!!!

 

Here is a pic of my baby - she is a joy to ride and the new seat (by Rich Maund as mentioned above) is comfortable as well. Dropped the footpegs by replacing with set from Buell.

Man I'd love a set of those bags...

How do you spell love ? M O N E Y ...dam........

 

 

I was very lucky - someone had a frame and one bag which I got for a fair price - then bought the other bag to match - however had to sell quite a few things on e bay to help pay for them though. Otherwise I would be in the same situation you are!!!

Those are the 30L bags. I am not sure how much bigger 10L would make the bags look but unless I was going on a serious long trips with lots of gear I personally would not want to go much bigger with the bags - they protrude just slightly past the handlebars at the moment and much more would certainly have them sticking out to the point I would be concerned about bashing them on things as I passed close by. There is plenty of room on the top rack area to put a tent, sleeping bag etc and of course you can stuff things into a tank bag like I have.

I am very happy with the set up on my bike and barely notice they are there when riding along.

Oh yea... T-Birds nailed it often.

 

Good taste. I've seen them a couple of times in Austin. :oldgit:

 

If you like them, I suggest you might also like Charlie Musselwhite and Duke Robillard. Different, but similar.
