It was a question. You're supposed to tell the story. What is going on here?

The shoes appear in one other photo too on the other side of the bike. Were there two pairs of shoes? Both sides? I have so many questions!

Back up a little. He said he picked up a girl and had to rearrange his luggage. I wonder where he attached his bungees or straps over the nose.

All, It has been an extreme pleasure hanging on this board and meeting soooo many COo.oOL people! However... Like all good things, this too must come to an end. I sold my busa over the weekend. Since our daughter is due in Feb. I have decided to make a life-changing event out of my riding...

Ok, ok...
As I was traveling, I had my girlfriend fly from Milwaukee to Las Vegas, we walked so much in vegas that she was uncomfortable with her shoes, so she ended up buying another pair, and since I was already packed, the shoes ended up on the side
But is Just 1 pair on the side, it just got move from 1 side to the other, I had to buy an extra helmet for her too, that ended up on the side also.

Ok, ok... that bag have 4 hooks attached with bungees, I had to loop it around the mirror, 1 pair over the mirrors and the other pair under the mirrors, and attached all inside going across the dash, now I have the bungees and the hooks right in front of the speedometer. It's a little hard to see the speed, but I had to do it. I traveled from Vegas to Los Angeles like that, then moved the bag to the back seat once my girlfriend fly up back home.
But... I came across another problem with my luggage rack... and had to do the same thing again... I will post pictures

While I was taking some pictures in California, this couple that was passing by, stop to see and chat about the hayabusa, they were on vacations for 10 days and they said my bike was the only hayabusa they seen during their vacations, he have a hayabusa back home and was thrilled to see another one. They were really great people, I told them about the Org. Hopefully they join.

Had another problem with the luggage rack, this time the bolt that hold it to the subframe broke off, had to buy some straps and strap the back case to the back seat, and had to move the tail bag to the front again.

I’m waiting for the other story.

Ok, ok...
It's confession time... I had a plan to get 2 traveling item together, had to track both, but I got them together, one it's been around for a while and then vanished, the other one took its place, it's old school and new school together. I'm currently traveling with both.
