Not a ride out as such this time.....but replacement luggage.....so a ride out to get 'em....
I had some lovely genuine Triumph leather bags in the recent past which I 'inherited' with one of the Bonnie projects. I found them fantastic size and looks wise but they would typically fall down onto the silencers and get burned when there was anything reasonably heavy put into them (velcro straps around the mounting rails, not ideal). I think the design on those has now been updated so I will look into getting a newer set one day as they really do look the part and can hold a lot...
So I answered a small ad earlier.....got these used (but never actually used and boxed) affairs up near Studio City from a nice old gal who was clearing out her house for a move......I reckon they'll be adequate for the time being. Chinese made but at $50 worth it I reckon. Simple use of a few tie wraps to the rails so far seems effective. in order to support the main under seat hold.
