Going to Ireland.... take waterproof jackets and trousers for off the bike
Hope to be heading the same way in a fortnight or so, over to the west to see my Sister's new place
Enjoy the trip (thumbs)

Re: Dominator project.
Well I'm all packed for the off and waiting for the Mrs, no surprise there :woohoo:
It still looks like I've got mountains of shite but I know that's mostly because I cant use a tank bag on this bike and I cant put the role bag over the back seat.

Re: Dominator project.
I've seen more luggage on a solo trip mate, however with two people it looks like a lot for the bike. I hope it geared and suspended for the weight.
I know this is the pot calling the kettle black to but you could perhaps do with cleaning your engine, it would set off the paint job a lot better.
Have a fantastic trip, are you looking to bag some castles?

And now, Harry, let us step out into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.

After a week in Ireland, the engine will have been blasted clean :whistle:Brenhden wrote:I've seen more luggage on a solo trip mate, however with two people it looks like a lot for the bike. I hope it geared and suspended for the weight.

Trying to convince my lady to come to Ireland in September. You can't help but notice how green it is over there...SteveR wrote:After a week in Ireland, the engine will have been blasted clean :whistle:Brenhden wrote:I've seen more luggage on a solo trip mate, however with two people it looks like a lot for the bike.

Maybe by riding it through a ford and stopping the engine in the middle?

Re: Dominator project.
Its surprisingly light actually and the gearing is set for a cruising speed of about 55 anyway. The shock should be alright, maybe
I should stop taking pictures of the bike from that side, its the dirtier one, the other side gout cleaned pretty well when I did stop I with the engine off in a ford, it was on its side at the time but that's something else :whistle:
Well Nikoli has his R/R fitted now and its working alright but we'll see what happens.
And if there's any castles about we'll bag them (thumbs)
