    Good on you ! I am @ 11 K now so have a ways to go. Plan to change plugs sometime this season so will have a look see at that time. Looks ambitious but interesting.

    Windshield.

    Anyone know what windshield this is and where can I find one?

    That Magical Racing windshield looks great but the website looks sketchy.

    Thanks. I currently have a Givi soft bag set-up that works well. I guess I'm going to have to pass on yours.

    Sold Saddle Bags OEM Gen 2

    I see the tear now in the photo you already posted . Too bad. Definitely needs a proper repair . Not your problem but I would need to ship and likely pay duty to get to Toronto. I will offer you $ 500.00

    Sold Saddle Bags OEM Gen 2

    I could be interested. Is a photo of the tear possible ? Sounds like a total recover necessary to make it right. And for clarity, the mounting brackets come with, correct ?

    Vertical Stand for Gen II

    I use a wheel chock that I bought at a Princess Auto for under $ 100 . It is a generic chinese effort but works well.

    I'm reading 500 hunny for the pair. Mount kit is sold separately. Otherwise you would have two numbers for the left and right bags.
