Hi Davy.

I think I've seen a few of you posts elsewhere.
Enjoy your run on the DCT on Monday.
Ballymena Honda have a manual version demo in tri colour may be worth a test also.

I've hope to get a run on the DCT on Tuesday.

Hello Loudpedel,

Greetings from Kildare. You will love the new bike. Mine is same colour as yours.

Hi Davy F
Thanks. Just got the rates bill :-(

Nice choice of model too, how'd you like the DCT,

So far I love it. But need a long trip to be sure

Thanks

Now got the luggage on

Bike looks great in my opinion with the givi luggage, is that 2 x 37ltr cases? Do you have a pic directly towards the bike showing the width with the 37s? I was thinking 37 on exhaust side and the 48 on the left.

Also (sorry the pic requests) do you have photos of the bike with just the scaffolding on it/cases off?

I'm in two minds whether to get the givi scaffolding or the sw motech quick release carrier with givi adapters.

Thanks.

Hi Richard

Yes 2 37L boxes and a 42L top box
I really think that the 48 is to big and will be just full of stuff you don't need
I have toured two up with these boxes on an Super Tenere.

As to the requested pics. I don't have them. but will take some tomorrow in day light for you.

Can you please confirm if the 42 litre top box take large offroad style helmet ( with a peak ) ? ( arai x4 , shoei hornet etc. )
thank you :grin2:

 

[Yromulus]

What make of pannier mounts are you using? With both pannier cases on it looks quite neat and narrow.

Thanks.

Hi Mad Frosty

Biggest helmet that I have is this front opening HJC
It fits in with loads of room to spare as you can see.
Plenty of room for a peak.

Hi Yromulus

Side boxes attached with Givi PL1144CAM mounting brackets.
Look here

The top box is attached with a SR1144 mounting bracket.

And a M7 plate

My local honda dealer supplied everything a little cheaper than motorcycle plannet
So worth asking for a deal.

Hey Loudpedal,

With the two equally sized cases is left and right symmetrical in width on the bike? Can you mesure for me (us readers)?
