    Really needed something good to happen. I've been dealing with some medical problems that have been depressing me for at about 2 months. Nothing new, but my back and left leg are getting pretty bad. Each time a flare up happens, the recovery time is getting longer and longer. Surgery is definitely on my future it appears. But enough of that. I got motorcycle toys!

    I haven't had the bike long, but it feels like I have been looking forever for panniers for this thing. I have been selling off goodies from my 6th gen that the guy I sold it to didn't want (plus a few things around the house!)

    The bad news is that my Two Bros exhaust is a "high mount" and is not compatible with the panniers. So it looks like I will have to post it up for sale/trade.

    Was the title of this thread done with "The Facts of Life" in mind?

    The hard cases are a nice addition. Have you gotten them installed yet? Pictures?

    Rather than have less storage capacity, surely it's a good time to get a new exhaust too? ;) (money permitting)

    I am going to be posting my current Two Bros for sale after the New Years. With whatever I get for it I think I will put towards a DAM if there is one to be had somewhere. I don't need it to be loud or deep, I am perfectly fine with quiet. So I am not dead set on the DAM, but I do like the look of it. The OEM can is just so damned hideous.
