I got them as part of a deal for a previous 850G I had. They are nice and big and durable for loading camping gear. A lot of soft bags are smaller than they look when ordering online. These large Eclipse bags are perfect for lower exhaust bikes and have useful secondary zippered compartments top and side. I think they match up perfect for the old GS large shaft G bikes.Originally posted by bonanzadave View PostComment

Funny you say that...I just made it my desktop background last night after posting it. Just don't tell my grandkids that after months of them having desktop frontage I displaced them for the time being.Originally posted by Cyrano View PostComment

Lurch, beautiful shot.
I have to ask. ... did you throw a stone into the water after talking the pic just to watch ripples broadcast from the spot that the stone landed? Or am I one of the few who does such things?sigpic

Got out of work on time, Got home, was 62 degF and sunny. No demands on my time, had evening to myself.
Whooo Hoooo
Got out for a third evening in a row.
Took my favorite 100 mile ride. Yee Haaaa
Had no real time constraints.
THis spot is close to where Greg78GS750 works. (THought of giving a call, but was after hours.)
The route follows the Muskegon river and crosses over a few times. THis place the road is real close to the river for about half a mile with lots of sharp curves and trees right at edge of road. (ANd locals in pickup trucks going as fast or faster that I care to.)
Made it into Newaygo before the jerky store closed.
I thought I would have some of the jerky (Hillbilly) and barcheese for dinner.
Hey, that is some of the major food groups: proten and dairy and fat and salt. Hey, horseradish is a vegetable.
Was good, so had some more jerky (Cowboy) and barcheese.... ew, that was Haaoughhtt.
On way home, westward, with sun at low angle, I was getting sun blinded.... so pulled off the road and improvised a visor.....
It worked.
View over Muskegon RIver at a bridge near Bridgeston at about sunset
Was after the sunset by time I got to the other bridges.
Home after dark. Was 55degF. SHould have had liner in riding pants.
Suppose to be nice for another couple of days, upper 60s and clear. Maybe ride to work tomorow.
But have other stuff going on over the weekend.

Playing hooky, Well Kinda, I have to work Saturday again this weekend coming and I told my Boss I'm taking the day off for the 6 day work weeks are just burning me out... he told me I better be riding
Yesterday I nabbed 130 mile on my new-to-me Harley XR1200 Sportster. I traded in the XG7560A Street-Rod for it was causing some horrid hip issues. The XR is by far the better bike even though it's 7 years older. Some upgrades are in the cards but it rides so much like a true standard bike (FZ1, 6, Bandit, etc). Harely really did it right on this one. Funny for the dealer called it a "Fast" bike and it really isnt. 90Hp I think this one makes, it's perfect for me for it's a touch faster then the XG750A was. Handles very very well... Plus I love the retro inspired modern day look. Very rare bike. 2K miles on the clock (Street-Rod had 13K).
Anyway traded it in dealer got me a hell of a deal. Much better machine.... Took it on route 17. Frickin' awesome day for it.

Awesome pictures Jedz. I'll bet there are a LOT of roads that look like that in Vermont. So how's the vibration issue with a big twin like the Harley? I've always shied away from big twins because I assume they'd vibrate more than I'd like. And I gotta say I've never been much of a Harley guy, but yours does appeal to me.Comment
