Now this is home made! Functional for sure. The guy spent his money on his head though.....his helmet had it and did it all! Seriously!



Phone quality shots...sorry.

the trunk and hardbags look like the new OEM set for the bmw s1000rr? it sure looks bavarian with the maltese cross displayed to predominately! can we get a confirmation from the experts here? this could be the 2011 prototype with the LazyBoy backrest and cup holder?

:D

WOW ...

well I guess if it's not "what "you ride... then kudos to him. Bike looks safe - he's riding... <shrug> Good for him. The alternative may be that his bike won't be functional enough so he can't ride...

What kind of bike is that? Maybe it's one of those expensive ones and he can't afford any accessories... (YES - that's a troll - I can read the name!)

Kudos - but NOT for me!

So far...converting my throw over saddle bags to bolt-on. The bags look better, are more stabile and the paint on the rear fender isn't getting messed up anymore.

The "Flash to Pass" garage door opener mod is nice too.

Thats one HUGE Drivers Backrest. WOW :shock:
If you look at the very back of the seat, there is a stud on each side, so I think he can move the backrest back. He's using another seat to act as the backrest.

I want to do that with the bags as well. I would like to make some sort of clip setup so that I can clip them on to the bag supports already existing. The easy brackets look pretty good as well......but that wouldn't be home made!

I made a bar for the turn signals in the rear when I replaced the ugly stock taillight with a Tombstone. I did not want to repaint the fender so I had a buddy help me make this to cover the holes. Pics are in my gallery, do not know how to post them

Another cool idea! Great job! How are the bags secured?

Post your pics by having another site host them like photo bucket. I use windows live. Right click and copy the location click the above
again. There you go!

The bags have Saddleman brackets behind them and their quick release mounting kit. It came with the bike but was not installed when I bought it. They work great. Both of these mods were done before I ever rode it





Thanks for the info and the compliments t-man

Probably cutting, reversing, and re-welding my OEM aftermarket passenger floorboards to bring them farther forward.
You did that yourself?? Nice! Can see in your gallery what you did. Why the heck can't the manufactures figure this stuff out? :?
