Thanks Shiney. You are right it is a great bike. Just trying to find out how to make it better for me. One question, Does anyone have trouble with the top of there panniers being scuffed when people dont lift there leg enough. It pisses me off.Is there some sort of cover you can put on? :blk13

Welcome Adam.

I saw a post some time ago, stuffed if I can find it again tho, were someone had put some car bumper protectors ( the type that you put on the corners of the bumpers) on top of their panniers. Looked quite good but I think you'd have to have a good look at them first to see exactly which ones suited.

I'll be having a look at them myself after the bikes repaired.

Take care,

G'day Adam - sorry for taking a while to welcome you - but - WELCOME!       :hatwave :hatwave :hatwave

You'll get heaps of great info out of this site, and most answers are only a question away!

Like I tell everyone who registers, have a look back at the older posts to see what intertesting crap we have been speaking!     :wink1

The ethos of this site is about getting out with these folks and doing that thing we love doing with our STs - (No Tipsy!- RIDING them)!       :eek            :rofl

It's pretty good having a   :beer and some  :eat  with the guys you get to know here. Haven't found a bad one yet!      :thumb

Anyways - enjoy your time here mate, and you're always welcome to post up pics and stories of your ST adventures too.

Cheers, Diesel
