Mad Max inspiration?

Looks like something from an old Mad Max film! If the chair is just as 'out there', it should be a wicked looking rig. So where are the pics?

How are the panniers (or ammo cans) secured to the frame?
Nice looking rig, love the paint.

I didn't get pics of the complete rig yet,it got dark and rainy.The cans are bolted to the frames with 2 bolts on the back and 2 on the bottom.The fairing,front fender and ammo can lids are all covered with bedliner.the tub will be also later this spring.If you want to see the sidecar check out the " The 12x12 build " thread.

Tough stuff that bed liner.

Out of curiousity why are you dumping the Strom in favor of the GS? (In my head that's: My current bike I like for that hateful old bastard "Purple Rain" I sold for 700 bucks years ago.)
