    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Saddlebags?

Just out of curiosity, when you say that you're tired of your saddlebags, are you using soft (woven cloth, etc.), leather or hard saddlebags?

I'm a long-time fan of the leather "throw-overs", especially if you have an easily accessable seat latch/setup. Plus they look good on cruisers.

For small stuff, I'd consider handlebar/windshield bags and a toolbag mounted to the front forks.

I'm going to go with basic leather "throw-over" saddlebags and a little fork mounted leather toolkit bag, both from MotoDirectUSA. Just waitin' for Christmas -- I've got the word out to potential present buyers. ;-)

I replied out of ignorance. I don't know what Snell is.

I'll assume that your are joshing. Snell is short for the Snell Foundation, named for a racer who died in the 1950s. The foundation tests and rates helmets, and its efforts have been responsible for great improvements in helmets.

I am sorry to say that I wasn't joshing. See how some ignorant some people can be and still walk around on this earth. My apolgies.
 
Yep, that one is on Chesapeake Bay. My ride up the Delmarva 'bout 3 years ago. Fun trip.:-D
