Hi ho, hi ho, it was off to work I go... Was a balmy 43* at 6:30 this morning so I rode to work. Was a beautiful 64* riding home.

Sadly, this will most likely be the last time this year I can ride to work. Weather is supposed to change more to winter like as soon as late next week.

 

Attached/installed La Rosa swingarm bag. This was supposed to be the vintage black one but it doesn't look (to me) much like the pictures on the website. Not sure yet if I'm sold on this or not.

 

Yeah, thats the same one I used on the OL's Iron as well.
She didn't like the 'distressed' version. I didnt care for how
it mounts so I got a fixed mount from Germany....

Give me some info on the mount (company name / where to order from)
Thanks!

 

Think I've said this before, but perhaps not in this thread...


It's from Ebay.de in Germany. I don't know who the actual
manufacturer is. The whole 'transaction' was a PITA having
to translate and deal with exchange rates/imports/etc.
If I had to do over, I wouldn't mess with it....


Best advice I can give is to just search the German Ebay website.


good luck,


T.

 

Hmm... Looks like this might work, too.

edit: I will let everyone know. I just ordered one of these.

 

Shag67, what seat is that? You happy with it?

 

GuyJr, I wasn't asked, but - that's the factory seat on the Roadster.

I swapped mine out for a Le Pera Sorrento for both mine and my wife's riding comfort, and I think it matches in the line of the tank better, at least in the pilot's portion.

 

I put the HD swingarm bag on my 48. The quality is superb and it looks great on the bike. Mounting the bracket was a PITA but worth it. It’s cheaper than the La Rosa too. Just no fuel bottle.

 

Finished Sportster #1, got risers, shocks and bars on #2 and started wiring
