cheers Spud

It's not mine Spud,
Britania Composites have a page on ADV rider, this is what some guy did to his DR350, I considered doing mime but in the end went for the DR600 Djebel fairing instead.

I can't believe how you've got all that in there Paul. I was going to squeeze my Coleman Phad into my luggage but in the end went and bought one of the cheapo Aldi one man tents. I shall have to review my luggage arrangements

They're great bags Bob and you know how I like to camp in comfort
I also have my trusty piece of laminate flooring that gets used in all the soft bags wether Lomo or duffle to provide a good base for strapping onto a back rack. Could pass for miniature decking
There you go .....Glamping on a DRZ
