    I just research all the panniers and bags, I was going to go out and just buy some 20mm ammo cans and bolt them on the side but had a concern on how much weight it would add (50lbs for the two cans and the rack before you add anything into the cans) but now I have decided that I am gonna get the Wolfman bag and strap them on the Moose racing racks (I like the top rack they have with it). Just saving up the money now.

    There great if you like being a cub scout and playing with buckles straps and all that kind of crap. Look to Andy Straps panniers http://www.andystrapz.com/products-details.php?productId=35&productCategoryId=22&Level=1 if you want a PRACTICAL solution.

    If you like fancy stuff thats up to you and there's plenty available, but Andy Straps wins if you want a practical solution.

    If you want photos of the installed bags I can supply.

    At least SOMEBODY got it. I was willing to gamble on the outcome. Thought Nimi mike like man racks if that is the case. :D

    Prefer girlie busts, but thanks!

    Raining here as well, but far from cold. It'll blow over, should have a nice sunset. Stay tuned.

    Well heck, if everything a person needs to know has already been discussed already and it contained in the vast archives, then they just ought to shut down all new posts to "Adventure Rider" and let everyone just search the archives for whatever they need to know.

    Getting back to reality, posts go off topic so fast in some cases that you could spend a lot of hours trying to locate something among all the clutter.

    Better for people just to ask the question and thoughtful guys with the knowledge can chime in, no harm, no foul. If no one decides to chime in, then it would be a great idea to suggest searching the archives, or better yet, just search Google, which will occasionally finds stuff quicker than the search function here.

    Or just restart an old thread, keep the weight of this side down, keep it faster and the costs of Baldy down who has to pay for us to use it.

    Some of us, who have been around for a while, tends to get carried away " chatting" you are correct in calling that, but I think that we do a good job shutting up, when asked to do so. On the flip side what is referred to here, is the forum rules, and faq, which many of the noob's do not read. They spell out very clear what one should do before posting.
    That said. this is a great community, where most, if not all get a long really well, and the "noob hostility" is never real, but well meant.:clap:freaky:freaky
