Swap feathers for heavy stuff and its bounce and break stuff..dont ask i tried it ...

A home made pannier rack to suport the weight will do...if you can pick the bike up with it youll wont break it lol..
I'll pack properly and road test tomorrow...
Be careful, you've put the O/E silencer back on there I see, there will not be a lot of room between that silencer and the side panel if you've got the weight of the bags pushing on it.

Giving my wifes Triumph Sprint ST a good cleaning so she can sell it.

Anyone know a short arse looking for a 3 year old blue Sprint with lowered rear shock etc (it'd suit anyone 5'6" or shorter very well) because she's after upwards of £5.5k with colour matched full Triumph luggage?

It passed it's mot yesterday and the tester said it's a credit to her but he's a creep and wants to do some work on her LC :)
