MRA Vario windshield, Kijima rack & Alaskan sheepskin seat pad
#1

Here's the current setup - not a cafe racer for sure, but will end up being a light tourer once I get saddlebags, panniers or cases. I'm leaning towards saddlebags since I already have a Tour Master tail bag and the matching saddlebags look to fit well and with little modifications (read, low $$ too). The MRA Vario works very well creating a nice calm pocket from chin to waist, but you couldn't smoke a cigarette with the wind that still hits your face (I don't smoke - just a reference to the H-D riders I see smoking while riding). I wear a full face or modular helmet and earplugs when in extended highway use, so this works out just fine.

I bought for my ST1100 a few years ago, but I'm pretty sure it's their 'medium' size. I wouldn't ride more than 100 miles without one.

Darn, for more than half a year I was running around with the idea of a sheepskin at my seat and thought that would be really cool!

And now everybody is coming up with a sheepskin. It's not cool, if everybody has it. Confused

Big thanks to Mr. T at Samurider for the quick delivery of the Kijima rack. Fits well and installed in less than 30 minutes. Exactly what I was hoping for on this bike.

Love the sheepskin, use it on several bikes. Works great summer and winter.
Good looking bike you have there.

ScottWally, Bike looks great. I don't think I have seen that screen before on the forum but I like it.
Sheepskin on the seat is a must for comfort and works surprisingly well in hot weather. Biker
