Bike Help / Recommendations for soft luggage on an FZ8
« on: May 07, 2012, 08:24:49 PM »
I'm going cross country on an FZ8 (crazy, right?) but I'm looking for some saddlebag/soft luggae options.   Your suggestions could be helpful.   Pictures of your set up, would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I'd work there just to be closer to the parts department...or the final inspection department...

TOD= Tail of the Dragon. How about "Six Gap"? or "Devil's Triangle". All parts of the pleasure within the Chatahoochi National Forest, overlapping the corners of Tennessee, Georgia and the Carolinas. And were doing all this and more in April.    If you have 6 days to ride that region, there are few twisties that you'd leave untouched... or ADV trails adventures you could do.  The sky is the limit.

I'm hauling down to the TOD in early April for a week of riding and have room for 3-4 bikes right now.  Want to get away?  Give me a hollar.

I met a gal from the north side of the cities this weekend, her name is Lynn.  She's the president of a womens riding group from the state.  Might be a great place to start.  Send her an email at

anderborg@live.com

please use the word "bluetank" in the subject line, so she knows where the referral comes from.  Lynn rides a cruiser bike and takes trips all over the place with other women.

Chris.

Plans to ride to Alaska:  Leaving around June 23rd with son and friend, 650Wee, 1200 SuperT and GWing.  Heading across northern side of Dakota and Montana, catching the ferry in Bellingham.  Three days rest and relaxation, getting off in Skagway to participate in SuperT NorthAmerican Rally in Whitehorse, then onto Dawson City, Tok, Fairbanks, Denali, Anchorage and Homer.   Maybe ferry back to BC or ride down the Cassier Hwy toward Banff/Lake Louise, drop into MT and then in Yellowstone... 28 days round trip....

or something like that.

Almost 8.8K miles this year on my Lil'Wee and SuperT...Looking for my 5th bike purchase in a single year without having destroyed my marriage.   Made it to Maine last summer.  Way more ambitious for next year...Arizona, Tennesee, Colorado and Alaska to name a few, without destroying my marriage!

Does this mean the escalation requires trading presents from time to time?   :)

On the recommendation of a probable-decent friend, I've wondered into this forum.   Been riding for a Wee bit and now have jumped onto a Tenere, prepping for an Alaska ride in mid summer.  Higher aspirations of meeting a bigger riding group in the coming year for rides all over the place.
