Your not selling this camping tbh Monty
I think I would rather book a B&B. Nice safe garage for the bike, beer, steak and comfy bed for me and someone else cooks the full English in the morning

That's ok dude, I'm not inviting anyone. Just me and my oldest mate. Mate as in friend, not sexual partner!
Anyway how's the Honda Mower?

Up to my eyes in DIY in the new house so we just wheeled her into her birth in the garage next to her other Honda sister, but we obviously had to fire her up and hear her sing much to the new neighbours delight
So if it's dry this weekend she's getting a good thrashing and boy do I need it
???? More info needed

Not cheap, 300 quid with the cam straps but they'll out live me. My Kriega rucksack is 11 years old and still looks brand new.
Plus I can fit them in any combination, 10, 20, 30, 40 litres etc

What I found were really good were Rok Straps. They're elasticated rather than being just webbing straps.

got a tank bag already thanks :-)
going to get some kriega luggage for the rear of the bike ive been impressed with the stuff blade has. Its just expensive but the second hand prices seem to be nearly as much as you can buy it new

Stupidly expensive, but you've got it for life and it's not bike specific.
