Givi makes 55 L model, I have one on my Vstrom. I would only consider Givi or Shad. As to the security thing........it's a plastic box with a lock on it so everything is relative.

Leave it. That's nothing compared to what is yet to happen at the hands of kids. Once they're on their own; THEN get yourself something nice.

I wonder how many of those for sale listings are for people who "bought" more house than they could afford? Little things like inflation, increased property taxes, vehicle loans and CC debt may have buried some people.

A man without tools is a hostage.

I'm 65 and work on my vehicles because its easier than working on them after somebody I paid to do it cocked it up.

I replace the battery in my truck after five years service for two reasons. One, it's my only vehicle apart from two motorcycles. Two, every time I put the key in the ignition I have the intention of going someplace and haven't built in time to deal with dead battery.

That's a good way to break an extractor.

And it gives you true picture of what you're paying. I get a discount for paying a year in advance. My insurance guy knows two things for certain; I won't call him for anything less than a total, and more importantly, if my rate goes up I'm shopping that day for a new carrier.

My grandpa would say "All hat and no horse".

It's a "girlfriend test". Early on I show them my bikes, if they say something like "you have too many bikes" they go right back out the door. I just don't need that kind of negativity in my life. :ROFLMAO:

This is just one of the rooms where I have bikes :ROFLMAO: All of my bikes are kitted with GOOD, read expensive, tires. I treat all of them just as I do my truck or motorcycle tires; inspecting the tread and looking for cracks, slits or weather checking. The instant one doesn't pass the test...

I'd file that problem behind getting my cholesterol checked. Drive it.

A man without tools is a hostage.

I think the answer to the question "Do you take your personal vehicle on a 2k road trip or rent?" lies in the question "Do you truly OWN your vehicle or are you paying monthly to use it?". If you don't have a clear title, preserving residual value thru mileage reduction might be the best...

That right there ^^^^^^ I'm surprised they didn't double down with price increases because the tariffs had COVID.

When comes to my money, asking price isn't necessarily the getting price. I'll wait until they don't sell all those trucks at the inflated price, then start shopping.

I looked up "PUP oil" and all I found was something for sick dog. Can someone get me started on what we're talking about?
