The transformation of my CB

[kennyw]

I found a little extra room on the CB today and installed Cortech 36L saddle bags as a temporary solution until I get all of the ammo can brackets figured out.

I have the same Cortech bags on my '13, and I also want to move the rear turns signals to allow the bags to move rearward. I notice that your bags are on opposite mine. I have the closed end rearward, which places the wide strap so that I sit on it. It's not too bad, but I still want to move it back some.

I do have a ride report for the Corbin seat. I spent the day on the bike a week ago Saturday. Left the house at 8 am and didn't get home until around 10 pm. Riding throughout the day consisted of 50-100 mile stretches with decent breaks in between. I made it to about 9 pm before it started to feel uncomfortable. Overall, I find the seat very comfortable compared to the stock one.
I also made a quick update to the attitude of the bike and drilled a few holes in the muffler end plate. Still retains the stock look and sounds a little better but not extremely loud.

I did the exact same thing, but with 18 holes, with almost no effect on the sound, or at least not enough for me. I didn't want much, just enough to hear. I had done similar to other bikes with a much more dramatic result.

The relocation is fairly straight forward if you pull the rear fender and put it on a bench. I detailed ot my routing here.

The sound from drilling the muffler is primarily limited by the cat. You can pull the factory muffler completely off and it still doesn't get obnoxious.
