Well, a new camping mule followed me home Friday.

I found out a guy was selling a V Strom 1000 that I know well, I just couldn't stand myself. A very nice ride, probably well above my standards:) He made a huge camping rack, I look forward to using it soon!

I hope to post a couple of pictures, there are more at the Picasa address below.

Yes they are. I am unfamiliar with the company, but great sound!

I put some soft bags on to make sure they would fit, and I am thinking Ammo Cans per your bike (and others).

Boy, that picture sure came out little. I have added some to the Picasa site...

If they are their titanium slip-ons, they are about $799.00 for the pair! :) They are definitely a high end pipe! P^

That's a nice looking ride. Did it follow or was it under you on the way home?

Much to my shame, it followed. I met Bob half way between, it took a ride on his pickup and I trailered it on in from San Juan Capistrano. It won't happen often from here on, I promise:)
