Vlog #5 A - Camping, new gear, and random ramblings

[brentm099]

Be very careful with bags on motorcycles. I have an unfortunate story of losing some irreplaceable items of a client's when the bag let loose somewhere along my route. $14k in lost business. Ever since, I've always double and triple checked that everything is secure at every stop.

Oh Im paranoid too lol. I've been thinking about sewing a crank strap to the fender back so I won't check it all the time. Brent what do you use for bags?

[brentm099]

I have a Ventura bike pack for a tailbag that has been plenty of room for weekend trips so far. I also have two soft saddle bags, I think they're Givi? but I haven't had them on the bike since I bought it.

Which one are you thinking about getting for a dyna,a superglide or Streetbob?

I kind of like the looks of the Fat Bob from the dyna family.But I would also like to have the iron 883 or a Night Train.

Oh man, tough one. I really like the way the Street Bob looks, but I test rode both the Street Bob and the Fat Bob last week at my local HD shop and have to say that the Fat Bob is a smoother ride. I really like the Night Train too...but the price point is what kills me there. So Street Bob or Fat Bob...I can't decide yet...
