Tour packs are for touring , profound I know but when you do 400 a day for 10-14 days you will want the storage

By the way Bob, that red BMW is looking killer for a very nice restro!
I have not installed the chrome luggage rack to the top of the fake tour pack yet. I like the lines of the bike without it. I think I will leave it off. It will cost me a little bit of storage room for trips, but that's OK in my opinion. Agree or disagree ?
(Oh, and never mind about the temporary cardboard window shade. LOL)
Stan, Stan,Stan, can you ever have too much chrome?, that’s a rhetorical question. the rack is chrome?. +2

I like the lines without it, but since it is only temporary, functionality wins out.

I will also add that if you were trying to keep prying eyes off those priceless tractors, you failed miserably.

Stan, put the rack on it! It won’t be that much higher than the seat back.

Late night check in, Woods...

Stan, I like the look without it. I had considered one for the Ultra and decided against it for looks alone. I bought a "dry bag" (I'll check which one) and strapped it to the passenger pillion before I went the solo set up route.

Would be nice to see scotch come down 25% even though I'm well stocked. I was concerned about any drinking with all the meds that I'm on. Rarely drink at home but made up for it when I was at the lake. I asked the kidney Doc last week about that. He looked at all my meds and said " No more than 14 drinks a week and you'll be fine, just don't drink them all in one night".....I really like this guy!

All I need to hear now is that 9mm ammo is $169.00 dollars a thousand and it’s in stock everywhere, “Then I’d be happy “ .
