    Considering Givi side cases. need feedback from those that have them.

    I am considering adding the Givi side cases. Looking for feedback on pros and cons from those that have used them. Do you need to put the smaller TRK33N on the muffler side? Thinking of the "33" on one side and the "46" on the other. Any one using this combo? Anyone using "46's" on both sides...

    Did risers help with neck/back pain?

    Installed the 1'risers today from Mototech. I also installed the mounting plate for my Givi E 45 case. The truck also makes for something for my wife to lean against. We went for a 2 hour ride tonight into the Laurel Highlands. The riser definitely made a difference. So did the case!

    Picked mine up friday, SW PA

    I have been lusting over a bigger machine for a few years now. I currently have a 2003 KLR 650 that I have had since 2005. I have enjoyed the KLR, on the dirt and back roads near my home and cabin; but it isn't comfortable enough for me for serious travelling, especially two-up. I picked up a...
