We’ve got a road-trip coming up shortly, so time to set the Superduke R up for touring! I picked up the soft panniers today, which go quite nicely with the bike. I’ll definitely be using them, though there’s a problem; ATM the exhaust will almost certainly burn the right-hand pannier, so I’ve got some exhaust shield coming tomorrow that should hopefully protect the pannier once stuck on the underside.
I’ve got a choice of tail-bags. Once big one, one small one. I think the big one will be a bit overkill. I’ve learnt the hard way that it’s easy to ruin things by taking too much.
Installed a new TomTom Rider 450. Love this. It rotates. That does it for me. The rest is a done deal.
Evo Performance radiator guard installed as well. I think naked bikes are more prone to getting holed from a stone-chip? Don’t want to take the chance.
Think I’ll be installing the baffle for the Racefit exhaust as well. It’s awesome, but it’s a bit much for all-day riding, and might make hearing Claire over the intercom hard work
UK tour bluelagos! Lake District, Peak District and Yorkshire Dales. We’ve toured the continent so much we feel a bit guilty about leaving the UK out! Hopefully the weather will hold for us.
