touring luggage
« on: 29 November 2012, 07:58:02 pm »
My wife and I will be travelling in France next year on my 600 and have been looking at the luggage options for holding everything, I have told my wife we will have to pack light. So why does this look like the best option, I imagine this chaps wife is in the shot if you look hard enough.    http://www.flickr.com/photos/sm-images/4770990170/#in/photostream/

I like it  :lol . Makes me feel not too bad about the amount of luggage I seem to end up with on a camping trip.
The obvious mistake he  makes is the case on the left side is the wrong way round. The wheels should be at the back to act as a wheely bar.

Haha, that's brilliant. I'm trying to persuade the missus to let me spend my pennies on some luggage. I think this might just sway the argument!  ;)

For years I toured solo using a Givi box on my VFR800.  When my girlfriend said she wanted to come with me on my tour to Spain this year I needed to upgrade my luggage in order to have a little more space.  What do you think of my solution?

She's not in the photo so I'm guessing you bought a new bike and you're leaving her behind?  ;)
 
Nice one, just the job for 2 up riding I'm sure.

Fuzzy,
Very true, Kate's not in the photo.  That's because she was taking it :-)
