- February 12, 2017, 20:27:42 PMThere are lots of long boring sections of road out that way so if you like turns and elevation changes, Broken Hill might disappoint. But there is a lot of fantastic scenery out there if you like big open spaces.

- April 20, 2016, 18:18:14 PMThey are actually Sing Saddlery bags. When I was looking I had lots of trouble getting the guy at Osprey to even return my emails and then when he did he quoted me a ridiculous delay period so I tried the Sing gear. They work ok but the leather is of cheap quality and I doubt it will last. Also they did not make the bags mirror image so if you look closely they are not balanced form side to side. I can live with them as they were cheap and I only put on the bike for longer multi day trips. By flat plate I assume you mean between the saddle bags, it heaps to hold more gear. If you meant the number plate, I got it form Cruiser Customising in the USA, it is designed for a Harley and I modified ti to fit. I like the more angled affect.

I like the look of the flat plate on the rear ... makes it nice contoured looking

... had WW on it earlier - didn't like it! I have now real old style tyres on it ...
Am in the process of updating the bikes - the yellow will become like (not copied) the Cobra police bike ... and while at it I put my chrome spokes back on the white one and the purple will be dressed down be non touring again - just the big tank will stay on it.
Oh my so much to do so little garage space lol
