new ride

[ardykay54]

After 9 years on a ST1300 and another 6 on a CTX1300.....I've decided to lose 250 lbs and go basic......Now to figure out how to take all my gear for camping!!?? Russ.

Nice bike. Z900RS? What year?

Let the farkle-ing begin...

You need a rack for that nekkid bike!
I mean luggage rack!

I can recommend a few dry bags that will fit all you need for camping that would strap onto a luggage rack.

And if you spend a little more maybe some hard luggage?

I'll bet there is a trailer hitch made for that bike so you can pull a cargo trailer.

How much gear do you want for camping?

Be ready for LOCSTOC?

like the rest of us did in the early '80s. Take a lot less crap than people carry today, large duffel bag, and lots of bungie cords. Or take the easy way out and get the hard luggage and trunk.

Fed-ex your gear to campground. That’ll help cut down on the amount of gear you take! Cost is the Mother of invention.

Beautiful machine.

When I re-entered cycling, I bought a KZ750. Great bike. LOC has been a tech stock before. Lots of folks to help with that oil change! Enjoy.

I like the Z1 retro look of this bike. Good choice!
As far as gear.... get a sissy bar, a skinny wife and let her hold it.

 

[rjs987]

I was going to say... so I will... your wife can come to LOCSTOC and bring all your stuff in the new car. She's been before.
