Impressive first post, and those bags look great. I like how the Remus doesn't cover up the open side of the rear wheel. Bet it sounds cool too! Nice bike...

Thanks... the Remus, especially without the baffle give her a nice roar.... now after mostly around town rides I am getting her ready for some simple winter desert 'ventures... Ohlins are on there way as is a Corbin seat.

Yes indeed. T'was I, talking about your bike.
Thanks!!! and yes I love the box... I bought a quick release system for it thinking I'd be taking it off when not hauling something but love it on the bike so much I never take it off... :D
You are right to covet my seat, it's awesome... :lol:

drchip, those bags are beautiful; much better looking than the BMW bags IMHO. The lines match the tank so well.

Nice pics. I've got the same windshield. It looks good but there's still buffeting. How do you like yours?

Fabricate some simple front mounts and tip it back a bit - I can't believe what a difference it made to mine... there's a good picture of xprof's solution (which I copied) in the recent 'Non-BMW handguards" thread.

The rack does come in handy at the campsite.

Thanks Peter! They're SW-MOTECH TRAX aluminum cases. I like 'em cause they're light, square, and open from the top instead of the side. My briefcase fits perfectly in one giving me no excuses for not commuting on the bike!

That is Fort Moultrie here in Charleston, SC on Sullivan's Island. Originally built in 1776, it was used in some fashion up through WWII.
