Marshall, you can get most things you want, including Sissy bar from Ebay. I see you have the saddle bags already, some good extras are windscreen, crash-bars, highway pegs, handlebar clock & GPS (then it will look like mine) ;D

OH pretty!!! I believe a lighter weight can be a factor, I'm a bit lighter than you (a woman never reveals so dont ask) and I reckon it makes a difference. I just put saddle bags and sissybar on the back of the bike and now I think I dont feel the bumps as bad as I do without them. That extra weight also seems to be helping my cornering, the bike feels more stable.

Hi Marshall. Welcome to the fold... which is growing by the hour!! You can get sissy bars or riders backrests from this site: stores.ebay.com/kakahealthcarewhich are pretty good $$$ wise, but not top quality. I'll put up another link in a jiffy to a site that is much better quality, but you pay for it too! Cheers, Breezy (Sandi)

Might have some free time next week, maybe even one day weekend after next...I'll be in Mildura this Saturday-Tuesday looking for a new home to move into within two weeks, and packing up our stuff for most of the rest of the week,but I may be able to get a leave pass from the missus at some stage...
Also, my bike Betty is getting new cans, airfilter, ECU & dynotune on Friday 27th (while I'm actually getting the same for myself...actually called an upper & lower endoscopy, but close enough). So we'll be getting 'serviced' at the same time. I'll be fit to ride and pickup Betty on Sat arvo. Unfortunately, this discounts me from Yarram ride, but if some are up for a shortet more local meet & ride, send me a PM.
