    Cleveland IMS - finally touched a Ténéré

    The Alt Rider crash bars are the second item going on my Super 10. The Micatech bags bags being first. Alt Rider has engineered every part I reviewed to be a work of engineering art. No short cuts here or skimping on materials to save cash. Beautiful workmanship.

    Jesse Luggage

    The seals leaked on BOTH bags. I can only speak to my experiences with these on my GS. The leaking seals seemed to be a reoccurring complaint on the GS forums. By all means, if you like them, buy them. For what they charged me and what I got....then my first trip with wet gear from leaking...

    Jesse Luggage

    My Jesse Odyssey II bags leaked from day1 . To fit them on the GS you had to relocate the factory turn signals and use a cheesy license plate bracket. The hardware rusted after a year of use. The brackets were not removable for the times you wanted to ride without the bags. I could not...

    Cameras and Photography

    One of the reasons I got the cannon in addition to AA battery power, was the advance photography modes. I can use in in a P&S mode or go choose what degree of automation I want as well (to include aperture control). Quite an advanced little camera in its day. I'm sure its been upgraded since I...

    Cameras and Photography

    I use a cannon Power Shot A1100IS for my tank bag camera (12.1 mega pixels with Image stabilizer) for my point and shoot. If I'm going to be posting to a forum or on line, I use the 5 mega pixel camera in my Samsung Focus Windows 7 Phone and transmit it directly to the net. I pack enough stuff...

    After Market Hard Luggage

    The V2's are a smaller version of the Micatech bags. One of the reasons I didn't buy Micatech Pilots for the GS was the size. When they came out with the V2's there were exactly what I was looking for. From the web site" V2 side case sized at 37L (8”) and 45L (10”) Dimensions are: L=18"...
