Yeh looks pretty good. The Vstrom is on my current list of future bikes.


That space under the left bag almost looks perfect for a tool tube.

Thanks all! The cases have 4 mounting positions, forward or back and up or down. Right now, I have them at the low, back postion. May decide to raise them up if I think I'll need the ground clearance, but also need to consider center of gravity

It is. twistedthrottle.com has one, but I've spent enough money for now. Other option is a bottle tube, along with either a water bottle or fuel bottle.

Nah, I won't be bringing the cooler. Don't really see a need for it on this trip. I bought it mainly for motorcycle camping trips that I'll be doing in the future. They didn't have any of that style cooler here in town and I had to ride 60 miles to get one. There was a state park 15 more miles down the road, so the g/f and I decided to go down there for some scenery and to make reservations for a cabin in October.
