Dropped 3 screws taking off the carb tops to shim the needle.

 

Got my saddle bags that I ordered from Revzilla installed today. Took about a whole 10 minutes, since it started raining right as I was finishing up lol...

 

Let's see the saddle bags. I need some luggage options and can't afford the givi cases

 

It's raining
But, these are the ones I got: Rapid Transit Recon 77 Saddlebag - RevZilla

If/when it stops raining, I'll pull the cover and snap a pic for you

 

And they deliver to Oz let us know when you try them out , I need a set of cheap bags

 

Pretty good deal there Matt - maybe worthy of an official review from you after a
few trips in the rain eh ?

 

I'm still a newb at this riding thing lol... I'd be happy to give a review of them, but hopefully I won't "find" any rain for a while lol...

Working on uploading pics now

 

Saddle bag pics for those who wanted them





They do come with rain covers... I'm not too sure how they will work, but it's better than nothing. The pic of the inside of the bag is with it not being expanded out. There's a zipper that runs from the top of the bag, around the bottom and back to the top that you can unzip to expand the bags out. Storage seems to be good. All I stuffed in them so far is some water, Honda plastic cleaner, some new cloth diapers to wipe the bike down (bite me lol) and the liners for my jacket and pants and a spare pair of gloves....
They mount easily enough with the two adjustable velcro straps that go across the passenger seat and two straps that go between the license plate and 2 straps that I anchored to the mounts for the passenger foot pegs. They don't seem to be too "floppy" when cinched down, but I haven't taken the bike for a ride with them on there yet. Maybe tomorrow or this weekend.


This pic is my Cortech Dryver tank bag. I opted for a ring mount type bag so I wouldn't have straps or magnets marring the paint on the tank...

So far, I've bought all my gear from Revzilla. Their customer service is amazing and they have a cool points system, where you earn points from every purchase. My first purchase (helmet, jacket, pants, gloves, boots tank bag and cover) earned me $30 worth of Revzilla bucks. That was enough to cover next day shipping on my saddle bags. I ordered the bags yesterday afternoon and they were here early this afternoon

 

Niiiiiice Dude

Congrats - bike looks awesome

 

Thanks Sprock
It's been fun buying all this new stuff and I still have a few more goodies on the way lol
