    Jackup kit choice

    Thanks for your feedback ! Have you noticed any premature bearing wear due to the bearing support being different from the original? Thanks, I already ordered a Tractive Shock but I also would like to increase ground clearance a little bit more.

    Passenger Handle

    I do not know if I will be able to space the racks because on the Bumot suitcases there is a metal bar that connects the two supports on each side to stiffen the whole. I could try to find or make a metal bar to replace it, but it would make me wider. I admit that I would leave more on the...

    Passenger Handle

    Hello, I have the Yamaha passenger handles and I bought some suitcases with Bumot support a short time ago. My passenger complained of the little room she had to hold the handles, and that it was even painful. And indeed, I noticed that the space between the handle and the luggage is quite...

    Luggage choice : Bummot, Metal Mule, Touratec, Holan

    Hello, I finally opted for the suitcases + the top case in the version with the most capacity. I must say that the width of the set is quite small. In fact, Bumot advertises the width of the set, and at equivalent capacity it's narrower than the competition (Touratech, Givi, SW Motech etc.)...

    Luggage choice : Bummot, Metal Mule, Touratec, Holan

    Thanks to all of you for your answer ! I like the idea to have a toolbox, I plan to put compressor, tire wire kit and some tools.

    Hello, I want to buy a complete set of luggage for my new XTZ1200 and go on a road trip and I'm mainly hesitating between the Touratech Zega Evo, the Metal Mule and the complete Bumot set.

    Windscreen choice

    Strange. Do you know why this phenomenon occurs? It looks like a "magnifying glass" effect. I'm sure it has something to do with the materials used, but I'm not aware of any such problems with other brands.

    Handlebar vibration

    Thank you for all your answers. I don't feel like I have too firm a grip, more relaxed. I had Grip Puppies on my old bike, and they work pretty well for vibration, but I don't have a very big hand and the grip becomes quite peculiar. The flexx bar option seems to be popular on this thread...
