Nice! I really miss the hard bags I had on a previous bike.

Man, 35mpg is my usual commute mileage. I was getting almost 50 running 80mph across Texas last summer.

very nice :D:D:D

Nice. I've also got the SW Motech setup with e21 side bags. The e21's are not huge, but they're quite durable, are top-opening (a HUGE plus), and a GREAT value for the price, IMO. SW Motech racks are well worth the price premium over givi mounts IF you plan to keep the bags/racks off of the bike at least some of the time. I bought the Motech's with the idea that I would leave them off most of the time...but I find the bags so useful in everyday riding, I ended up just leaving them on all the time.

So I got huge box from Twisted Throttle today. Sweet!

My racks, locks, and bags came in right when the said they would. I'm really happy with the customer service from Twisted Throttle.

So the install for the racks was interesting because the directions were all in German. Other then the taillights fitting a bit weird, the install went off without a hitch. Took about 3 hours total. That was taking my time and enjoying some German lager.

I'm really happy with the fit and finish of the racks, they look like they will hold up nicely against the elements.

Blah, blah,blah.... pics

Bah! It's because you're lazy! redflip


Steve, cool set up! :dthumb:

And it's still CLEAN! Gah! :panic:

Looks like the SW Moto racks are a step up from the Givi tube racks... at least they give you a reasonable place to put your turn signals.
