The look pretty good, how comfortable are they?
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

They give me a couple of different positions for my legs, so they work out pretty nicely. I'd like if they had another couple inches out the sides, but then I'd start worrying about them dragging during hard corners.

I'll have a much more informed opinion after the trip coming up next weekend.

Just for you, Sev: it's currently 16* C out and the GF is begging to go riding. Muwahaha. Enjoy your snow. :D

I just threw my Joe Rocket saddlebags on the Hornet. They are different than the ones you have, Sev - they're bigger and shaped differently. They seem to fit ok, but I'm a bit worried about one of the straps on the underside of the bags: it's touching the exhaust can. Not a whole lot I can think about to insulate it, either.

Any ideas, or should I not worry about it?


vvvv You're killin' me, Smalls. vvvv
