Obviously a magnetic tank bags no use on my 05. Cos the tank tcover is plastic. I dont wanna fit any cissy bar type lumps of metal. So how do I take a passenger aswell as myself with a couple days worth of luggage? Apart from the pillion wearing a rucksack the size of a small country, cos its a SHE. Any way os strapping a tank bag on?
Tell her to take the train, while she is at it take the luggage also..................................................................................if you really like her then treat her to FIRST CLASS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A mate come up with a good idea when he wanted a tank bag but had a plastic tank. used gaffer tape, metal Coins and a few layers and it held over a week tour of Europe
Viz top tip Matt. Or just duct tape the luggage to her. It's water resistant, insulating and like a permanent set of airbags
why cant she just carry a normal daysack with both your kit in it, surely you dont need that much? xx
Because a 'typical' woman, for 3 nights needs: @12 pr knicks 6 pr shoes 3 pr boots (in case) Minimun of 6changes jeans/trousers/skirts/blouses Nightie Dressing gown Massive bag of war paint Hairdryer Straighteners Curling tongs Daytime handbag Evening handbag Jam rags Potions n lotions I just need extra pair o socks, baccy, money phone!! Lol
Don't try that one on Jo mate. We've already learnt how light she travels. It's not a prisoner taking area with her. Why do they need curling tongs and straighteners???
Got to be a tank bag - Givi do ones that clip on the fuel cap, have one but not used yet, seems great gear!! And a Ventura rack and bag - they get loads on and can turn round when you have a pillion... Great gear - looks a bit poo
Cheers fella. More like it. whatever I get will probably only get used 2 or 3 times, so am reluctant to spend money out of my 'carbon,pipe,rearsets,other bling and track day' money box
exactly!! sorry, its not that i'm not a girly girl, i just like to travel light if i'm going away on the bike, tell her she can take a lipstick, toothbrush and a couple of pairs of underwear............if she dont like it, tell her to drive!! xx
god i've never heard such crap!!! men are the 'just in casers'!! tell her you'll treat her at the hairdressers if she wants her hair straightened/curled, there 3 less things already as she wont need a hairdryer either!! xx
oooooooooh well whatever suitcase you have to carry on your tank with a bunjee wrapped around the handle bars, then doubled up around yourself have a bloomin great weekend!! xx
