prince_ruben 0 Posted December 28, 2011 So I headed out this morning to get more off-road seat time. This time I took the GS with a newly installed TKC80 front tire. I should have taken my bags off but I decided to go with them anyhow. Bike handled well but a big brutish. I took I-15 to Pala 76 then Nate Harrison Grade, onto S7 then made my way home from 67. Nice day out for a ride. Next time I'll do the same route but with the XR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael15 1 Posted December 28, 2011 Nice ride, thanks for sharing! You are right about the side bags. I'd def remove for dirt. I've heard of to many broken bones from laying the bike over with those side bags on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riggerdan 147 Posted December 29, 2011 I've heard of to many broken bones from laying the bike over with those side bags on. I would assume they serve as some form of protection obviously if your leg is not under that box....thats not good one day you will have all your camping gear, tools and supplies and you will be glad you rode (trained) once in a while with your cargo boxes on firm believer if you can get through most with the boxes just think what you can do without them PS: Great looking bike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
