GIVI top box done

I mounted the velcro straps of the Nelson Riggs under the seat. Looks like I may switch it to over seat though for trips. The straps are sealed to the bag not just the exhaust shields that are velcro'd to the bags.

How the locking straps connect. Between the velcro straps. Under and then over the rack.Not the most elegant,flush looking connections--mounted to the PL367. But this is a temporary solution. I'll get hardcases later.

Left side locking strap mounted strapped to GIVI pannier rack.

Right side mounted to passenger foot peg.

Soft and big. Nicel sized cases.

Passenger will have foot and leg room. The bag is significant distance from the pipe.

Reflective piping. Guess i didn't get those too even?

Blasted out yesterday just to bond with the bike. Mostly in tour mode, which was excellent for exploring the country side and being frugal with the gas mileage. Yeah, sport mode when I get to something more fun. I dont love the temporary pannier setup. I like the look of hardcases. Either way, lots and lots of healthy producing smiling going on over here. Have to finish the GPS mount and I'm done for a while. Got Anakees on her. May grab some Pilot Roads next.

Looks Good, just ride and enjoy.

The extra money for hard cases is another trip you can take woot! ::014::

Questions.

1) What rpm is lugging the bike? What is an optimal cruising RPM?
2) Where the heck is the hazard lights button!
3) clicking (valve clatter) normal with the 4 stroke twin?

Yeah, gotta find the manual.


4)How does one get the "where I've been" map in the profile signature?

1) I like to cruise around the 4k mark on the highway, which in 6th gear translates to about 75mph (may indicate up to 80)
2) There isn't one. If you want hazard lights, there are a few threads here on the forum about adding them, including one I wrote up.
3) This is a noisy motor, so not 100% sure which noise you are referring to. If you haven't read all the CCT threads, they might be worth investigating.
4) Create the map. Save it to an online account (Smugmug, Google, etc.). Copy the URL, and go to edit your profile. In the signature field, use the IMG tag (instead of URL) to bracket the URL of your map. Save your changes and it should be on all of your existing posts, and be added to new ones.

You, Sir, are a scholar and a rider! Thank you.
