Do yourself a favor and get Double take mirrors.

If you really want GS mirrors I will sell you mine because after living with the Double take mirrors I want them on all my bikes now. Huge improvement....

There is a link in Vendors. I am not associated with them, just a very happy customer

Dunno how he did it but I bought a onboard compressor from a goldwing once, that was big and clunky. But it did at least have a 10ft quick disconnect air hose.

I ditched the setup in favor of a portable model, was smaller, lighter and I could move it. I was thinking of taking the guts of a slime 4003 power sports pump and mounting that to a bike (since that model has all modular connections and no wires or hoses sticking out of it).

What's with the funky license plate? I can't imagine the cops don't give you a really hard time about that.

a little leaner than before

A few years ago I ran across a challenge from Wolfman Luggage thinly veiled as tounge-in-cheek advertising for their enduro duffel

Quote:
Got the New E-10 Enduro Saddlebags? Need more space? Are you going around the world? (Just kidding. It's not that big.)
: Challenge accepted! Except I'm using the older, smaller OG enduro saddle bags.

Good enough for 23 days on the road, could have kept going indefinitely like this though if the money held out longer.



Wolfman Enduro saddle bags, duffel, and tank bag. Had to add a Sea to Summit event compression sack for clothes, size large, and a Carver surf rack for board rentals along the way. Had room for 2 spare tubes, spare fuel, a DSLR, 4+ days of clothes, heated liner+gloves, camping gear, cook kit, etc in other words all the necessities. I even had a chair! (Byer stool)

This is how I packed for the previous 3 weeker...


Dirtbagz scouts, wolfman enduro duffel and tank bag, big ass REI self inflating mat...

Prolly photoshopped it so no inmate would give him grief or turn him in for something.

"Do yourself a favor and get Double take mirrors."

Thanks for the heads up on the the mirrors. That set up would work perfect. When on trips can put them on, and easy off when not.

Now I know why they pull me over all the time, I always thought it was for speeding!

Repacking and reorging for the Roaming Rally in a few weeks. May make some alterations to the packing page but i think the basics will be the same.

I went to the Georgia Mountain Rally this past week-end. Everything was carried on my GSA except, my buddy, his Harley , one Pico chair and his REI half-dome tent.
























I had to put in one food picture

Where did you find that cool looking cooking grill? And does it fold down pretty small?

I need to get some better heat resistant tubing because it did melt while inflating 2 tires back to back. Other than that its great!
