Compared to some I travel light. I started with Oxford sports panniers on my 1200 but don't bother any more. £7 Aldi dry bag had more than enough room, but I have since fitted a 45 litre top box which I leave on permanently.

Now then Herb

Great shot at Eilean Donan Castle Mate, bike looks mega 8)

Haven't been away properly on My BCR yet, although I have rode to Edinburgh but I have clothes there so only needed a basic rucksack for bits. Gonna use that rucksack for my two organised trips for long weekends this year, Wales with Mates in Aug then Nurburgring in Sept and see how I get on.

My preferred bag when on my XJR on 'me todd'

But also have a Bagster tank bag and sometimes just take that

Ok I have made this guy anonymous - but he is known as "Stupid Boy". Its a Triumph Sprint with Luggage and a custom made Top Box rack loaded for a Two up trip to the Alps. He now admits it was a bit too tall at speed. (My view is its a bit too tall standing still :P ) Also I'm not sure why the bike appears to be inside his house or how he expected to get it out of the door fully loaded - Stupid Boy lives up to his name.

There would appear to be a surfeit of prolixity and sesquipedalian content today please do not use a big word when a singularly un-loquacious and diminutive linguistic expression will satisfactorily accomplish the contemporary necessity

Here is my old Yamaha RD350R. I was just about to set off for the IOM TT, way back in 1997!

It was slightly 'wheelie' happy with that rucksack on the back if I recall!

It started badly, it tailed off a little in the middle and the less said about the end the better, but apart from that it was excellent.
