Fancy another couple of "experienced riders along? Sounds like a damn good trip with no pressure to break the sound barrier. My wife (boots) and I are keen if you'll have us.
Also, I've got a pair of Oxford soft panniers just lying around that I'd be keen to have go to a good home if anyone wants them. As the bike is my only transport I used them everyday for grocery shopping and the like. Still in pretty good nick. I don't need them as my new bike came with a full set of hard luggage.

I used to ride with a back pack. I left the shoulder straps loose enough so the pack slumped onto the pillion seat & used the waist belt to keep it secure. It was not full of bricks though, a really heavy one might flop about a bit. Never had any issues & it was comfortable.
I use my back pack, it does get annoying if i have a heavy load..or groceries..
if i could borrow a tank bag that would be awesome maha thanks.
Should get some luggage bags one day...
We could also chuck everything onto the harley, it's a cage isn't it?
To add to swbarnetts offer for luggage at the top of this page, we have another tankbag that someone can use.
It zips together to form one and is 30cm in height and is magnetic.
The water bottle will give an idea of the height.
Yes yes the lawns need a mow, I am sure the man will be here this week....![]()

Yep, still going. They might be a bit long for the GN though - 600mm.
They're a pair of these in red:

Drop me a PM if you think they still might fit and we'll arrange a meet.
