    Nice bike you have there Cadbury. ;) you know what they say about if you want the best, go with those in the know. Those calibers look like F4i? Did you do the bridge line on the rear caliber? and I assume you installed a 14mm Master from the SH, 51 or a F4i, wondering how the rear brake feels after the switch? way better?

    Wrestled with getting these bags laid on just to check them out. The Mototrek sport saddlebags that were mentioned on this forum. I'll have a great back rest and some room for a couple of dry bags for the rest of my stuff. :)

    Soon to be loaded up moto! Pics laters.

    Pics now or it didn't happen. ;)

    Oddly, did you notice what type of bike is that they used in the product photo (the white one)?

    Lolzzz, yes, I did!! <3 <3 I love my moto!!

    I took pics, but was just so dark here. This one isn't terrible. I'll have better pics tomorrow. I'm going to do a preliminary pack and load.

    I bought the 33L Mototrek roll bag as well, and that's the wrestling that sucked. The clips are a pain to attach and detach with the saddlebags. The female clips are housed in tiny compartments on the saddlebags that you can't pull out...unless I'm doing something wrong. Lol

    I broke a pretty strong fingernail messing with it. I need to get swifter at it. It will suck loading and unloading every day if I don't master it.

    I failed at using a Seal Mate to clean my fork seals. Damned thing just crumpled up and wouldn't slide between the fork and the seal. Yay me!

    Yeah, I wish I knew about that first. Do I have to remove the black guards on the forks? I'll probably order one.

    Let me know how the Airtech stuff fits. When I had a Triumph Sprint RS, I sent my fairings down to them to use as molds fit that model. Are they adding tabs to their stuff yet?

    I'm estimating it would be $873 if I were to buy fairings from Airtech, plus prep and paint. That's approaching the cost of factory stuff, that's guaranteed to fit.

    Yes F4i front calipers with EBC HH pads, and I joined the two original back brake lines together at an F4i rear master, using the double banjo bolt that came out of the linked brakes. Brakes are AWESOME. Did not try the original back MC.

    Going to give the bike a good caning tomorrow.:stung:
