jdavis Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Up at 2am and off to Warwick, but the fires closed the Hwy, so left through Boonah to Nerang for a drink for me and the bike. Off up the hwy to Mt Coot-tha and then to Esk via Mt Glorious, still need more so I go up through Hampton to Goombungee for Breakfast. That will do and now off home via Murphy's Creek. New seat works a treat. Bike says a bit over 600K's. https://goo.gl/maps/kQBzgM8BiKjYGVUw5 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our roads get crappy quickly here I use a wax spry and a rag most of the time and its good. Wash time, I use Truck Wash, spray on and let dry, then rinse. Blow dry with a compressor. All pretty easy.

You've probably mentioned this elsewhere but are the panniers painted or FJR1300 panniers or ....other? Looking good!

Mine, of course, are Gloss Black to match the bike so they don't stand out as much as jdavis's red, which indeed looks truly excellent!

Premium Member 1moreroad Posted November 21, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted November 21, 2019 Poor, wet bike. OTOH, replacing 1/2" spacers with 1" spacers in the Givi windshield made a huge difference in smoothing out air. I'm now sitting behind the windshield. I'll probably keep it this way until spring. I'll swap spacers and handguards at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
