Yep,I'm kinda sorry I didn't buy a trunk now! I have two other seat cowls so it's no problem for me to make something. I'd hate to lose the shipping but I still may get the EMGO piece and send the Fieldsheer back. With the hard case, weather is not a problem anymore. Hmmm...

Does this mean you've decided not to trailer the bike? You're buying luggage....

I just found that the bungees on my tailbag wore right through the clear and basecoat, and into the plastic on my tail. :td: Add that to three days in a row of nice weather when I have cords showing in the rear tire, and I'm not happy right now.

Me too! Almost 600 miles! :panic: I thought I had the route and leave time planned. Then I realized I had Amorok and me hitting ATL too close to rush hour for my liking. :panic: So now I have us leaving alot earlier...he's not liking it. :lol:

I'm REALLY not looking forward to riding all those miles in one day. Noone better laugh when I'm finally able to crawl off the bike, damnit! :lmao:

BTW, do you know where I can get a nice size bungee net? :D The last one I got here barely stretched over my rear seat and couldn't hold shit!

It's not that really small bungee net is it? That thing won't hold shit on my bike.

Fuck, I don't know biatch! get your ass to a dealership and buy a God damn net! :lol: I honestly don't know what size it is, if you want a really big net, go to Walmart and get one. They have really big ones!

I don't go to the stealerships around here. The couple of bike stores here only have the small cargo nets and they aren't worth a damn :rolleyes:

I thought you'd know a little something about the nets since you seem to be Mr. Know It All with gear and most other bike accessories! redflip
