Just a little update: Just got back from a 2000 mile European jaunts with the luggage fully loaded and it was great, and the inner bags for the panniers were really handy. Mounting was secure and was tested up to around 100mph on the Autobahns without anything falling off ;) You might notice...

How much did the gel insert cost to get done if you don't mind me asking?

Anyone tried the Givi one yet? Looks massive but might be nice over winter

Corbin do seats now but they sure cost a lot!

When I have pillion or luggage I normally just go a couple of steps up on my rear shock preload and the bike feels fine

What benefits are there, how much and where?

Haha thanks guys. I think I will get some swingarm / fork protectors and some form of engine bar. The Givi ones look thorough but are not the best looking. Puig look to have some on the pipeline too so I will wait to see what theirs turn up like. No I always ride in full gear and boots :) I...

No the way they mount means they would be difficult to modify. The R&G kit comes with the bits to fit universal indicators though and some nice looking small Led ones were only £12 on ebay :) Where did you order your luggage from? Mine took about 2 weeks bit seemed very cheap. Did you order the...

What do you guys have (if any)? Obviously wanting to keep my new bike nice I am looking into getting some crash protection. I know some of you have bungs which look a good affordable option but I worry about the forces in a drop going into the frame through a single thread, and potentially...

Yes I have some smaller Indicators on order :D

This just arrived so couldn't help but fit it straight away :D I have 10 days off in September so am planning a trip around Europe, not sure on destinations yet though
