Michael

Those look ideal Marko. If you fit them over the top of the pillion seat as opposed to underneath then I do not feel you will need pannier rails as the seat will hold them apart. I have a grab rail I can probably spare if interested

WOW Michael you never seem to sleep. That sounds like a great haul and some interesting project work ahead of you.

Well done that man

I am not sure what else I can suggest now. Assuming everything has been checked for the obvious disconnection, broken wire etc it is a matter of going through the system and checking each component. I hope you don’t give in.

No I do not have any experience with the W650/800 pannier rails I am afraid. I have a rear carrier on my CSR with pannier rails built in. Very handy and useful and not bad looking either IMHO. Before I bought that I used panniers without rails and did not have any issues. That is soft panniers not rigid ones. Which type are you thinking of?

That is some trip Michael. Respect to you. My trip not only was shorter I was able to collapse my trailor and put it in my boot for part of the journey.

Do not apologise about the chainguard. I have several guards here including K and also have a B swinging arm too so should get some decent idea.

Have a safe trip buddy

The thought of leaving you by yourself

Aha, aha, aha …
Love the background girls :-)))
Cheers, Michael

You sound as mad if not worse than me.

I can only brag at 6 twins (sigh)

Just spit my beer !!!

Great one !!!

ThanX !

Marko

Are you looking for a garb rail/sissy bar for George?

Now that is interesting Michael. I have a spare Chrome chainguard from a CSR if it does fit.

Well a few more knock backs for me. Front wheel bearings were knackered on the respoked wheels as the spacer had not been fitted. The left hand fork leg has jammed and the left caliper piston is leaking. Oh the joy lol. I am trying to find out if I can use a CSR caliper. It looks the same but the part nos are different so I am not sure yet.

I would guess not except without some modification and it would probably look odd as it is smaller. Tango has fitted a chainguard from a different bike that looks quite good. He will be along shortly no doubt.

After reading that sad story George it is for me too. Hi George.

Mine does not have a name as such she is simply know. As my The Bitch because she does what she wants when she wants and that is not always the same as I want

That is a definite Michael. I could not do it any other way now

Thank you for your comments Bolton440. I haven’t managed to fit the wheels yet but I needed to nip out earlier so . . . . maiden voyage with the pipes. WOW I am very very pleased. She is not offensively loud but you can hear her coming lol. Pleasing result.

Your right Tango. I had wondered if they were too long but I think you have just convinced me. Now go file your fins 😀 😡

We got the same oil today when we picked our wheels up.

It was £17 for a 5 litre can. Far cheaper than any other we had found.

Got my respoked wheels back this morning with new tyres. Oh Yes!!!

Can’t wait to get them fitted but won’t manage that today because it is Mothers Day so I have duties to fulfil first. Will try in the week after work.

Picked up oil today at a good price so happy days alround yet again 😀

Yes Michael that is pretty much right with my B. It is the 3rd time I have bought her lol.

Yours and Maria’s bikes look great together. She does look good and happy sat on her Y. Bet you had a great inside buzz when riding together 🙂
