New use for packracks!!

[Stuey]

Found a new use for packracks whilst on the Waihi ride this wkend!! Awesome ride by the way, finding new limits to the gixer each time i go out with the KBers Packracks provide a sturdy alternative to the bikes fairing when you have to push the feckin thing for about a 100 meters!!(slight xageration mayb!) Those TL's are'nt the lightest of bikes are they!! I was still tryin to catch my breath whilst in the twisties towards Waihi Have to give up smokin if i go on many more rides, thats if Dss3 comes along!!

Haha, cheers for that man! Found the problem, kinda by fluke, when I got home. Seems there was a connecter not quite pushed in properly to the little black box/computer thingy. By chance I wriggled it around and now she's all good again.

Oh did I mention that the first few times you pushed me and it didn't start It could have been because I fogot I had the kill switch off?......kidding

I allways found that they made my bike handle like and slowed me down...

Should point out that there weren't acutally any packracks on the bike... just the mounting brackets which worked as a good handle for pushing against. But yeah they do affect the handling of the bike, specially if youve got the packs chocka full of heavy shit, but beats wearing a bag or only being able to take a pair of boardies and a tin of baked beans away with you on holiday.
