Impressive first post, and those bags look great. I like how the Remus doesn't cover up the open side of the rear wheel. Bet it sounds cool too! Nice bike...

Thanks... the Remus, especially without the baffle give her a nice roar.... now after mostly around town rides I am getting her ready for some simple winter desert 'ventures... Ohlins are on there way as is a Corbin seat.

Yes indeed. T'was I, talking about your bike.

Thanks!!! and yes I love the box... I bought a quick release system for it thinking I'd be taking it off when not hauling something but love it on the bike so much I never take it off...
You are right to covet my seat, it's awesome...

drchip, those bags are beautiful; much better looking than the BMW bags IMHO. The lines match the tank so well.

Copied from another post as more appropriate here:

Nice pics. I've got the same windshield. It looks good but there's still buffeting. How do you like yours?

Fabricate some simple front mounts and tip it back a bit - I can't believe what a difference it made to mine... there's a good picture of xprof's solution (which I copied) in the recent 'Non-BMW handguards" thread.

Ok. Thanks. I'll check it out.

G'day all, thought i might add my R12 to the growing list of the other fine examples in the gallery...Ive owned her for 2 months now & what can one say, i love this bike ....She's my only means of transport (have't owned a car for 10yrs) & loving every minute in the saddle....Will be taking her on our first big trip (well 2, ive got to be back for xmas then off we go again) together & cant wait to be in the saddle all day long & letting her loose......long live the boxer

ROFL!

Rrider, you rock!

That's a very attractive setup, I'll have to recreate that the next time I need a spendy farkle...

Peter

Thanks.
The rack does come in handy at the campsite.

You just can't stop yourself can you?

Gotta have a little fun sometimes.....

Another beautiful December day in the South Carolina Lowcountry!
I know, I know- I just got a new camera and forgot to grab the lens hood...

I like those bags Patrick, what are they? And what is that block structure in the third photo?

Thanks Peter! They're SW-MOTECH TRAX aluminum cases. I like 'em cause they're light, square, and open from the top instead of the side. My briefcase fits perfectly in one giving me no excuses for not commuting on the bike!

That is Fort Moultrie here in Charleston, SC on Sullivan's Island. Originally built in 1776, it was used in some fashion up through WWII.
