Hi flyfifer 

Sounds like Hurley succeeded where Sargent failed miserably. Can I ask how much it was and how long it took? I’m darn sarf in Surrey so P&P would be cheap  

cheers

That is a lot of fabrication work! :) Great job, and thanks for sharing your ideas and such.

I have one question however....... how do you find riding the bike in the wind with all the gear on it? I bought my Tracer with the #1 reason being tracking straight on the windy days? I would love to jack my ride up one day to haul that amount of gear, but worry about how it would handle.

I also have a KLR650 and just could not handle riding on windy days above 80km/hr (so the KLR is now my backroad / gravel road adventure bike, and will not see much highway use). I specifically got the Tracer to be able to highway ride with a lot less stress in the wind.

CheerS!
