    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.

I have used Nelson Riggs since 1999 and they have held up well, fit all of my bikes and have plenty of room. Here are pics from my ride today in 43 degree Indiana.

I use the Motcentric roll bag on both my 750 and 1100. Plenty of room, and holds its shape when empty.

hey guys thanks for the pics. sorry it took so long to respond had a crash with my truck just getting back on my feet. i will have some time now to post my build on the site. all your bikes look great.
 
great pics. I have a 550 so no long distance for me. no bags required
 
Glad you are getting well enough to ride. I tossed my dirt squirter down on Christmas eve and am still on the mend. The good news is the race motor for the GS is ready to be picked up...

it is killing me not to be able to ride it. i took the bike out for the first time the day before i crashed. i loved it! the weather is perfect and i am stuck in the house kinda still bunged up.

I used to make the eight hour trip from Toronto to Sherbrooke several times a year on a GS550T. I used Bagman soft saddle bags and a no name tank bag. It is important to get off, stretch and look at the scenery at regular intervals to avoid cramping and tingling.
