Hi JSpeed, what's the exhaust that is possible to see on your pics? Bassani III?

How's yours?


Thanks,

Just the 110ci here, but with the Bassani Road Rage exhaust and DynoJet PowerVision with a Fuel Moto base tune. I've done about 10 basic auto-tune sessions with this setup and have no "holes" in throttle position or any rpm range. Did you get your LR-S properly dynoed with the SE tuner? If it is tuned properly, there shouldn't be any holes in TPS or RPM.

Hi Relycz,


yes, the problem is that my "tuner" (with dyno...) is NOT a specialist, so the tune session on dyno were not so properly.....
now i try to repeat....... with more luck !!!!!

thought id update you guys that may have thought about these bags.. I know theyre not Tsport bags but for $160 on Amazon, im tickled with them. They are tourmaster slant III size Large and come as a throwover. Since I'm running the stock throughover seat, i didnt want to see this exposed on the fender. East coast customs (name?) makes them with a mounting system but i thought i could make something to work great and under their $360 setup. (not bashing them at all but im a cheapa$$) grabbed some flat stock, mounted it up to the rails and seems pretty stout for about 15 bucks at Lowes.

The bags come in M, L and XL. L fits perfectly snug between the shocks, stock turns and license plate bracket.

Im really happy with how they turned out. if i had to be picky, I do wish the slant was parallel with the shocks. youll see what i mean.

For years, I've never been a fan of running bags. purely just for the sleek looks of not running them. With having my daughter 2 weeks ago, I've found my main reason to ride was when we needed to make a diaper run. So i decided to try and find a decentlooking option.

Looks good...and for $160, that's a winner. Do you mind posting up some more details on how you modified the bags, mounted them, and the metal stock you used?

I'm very intetested to see this. Thanks

Hey Nightsterept- and anyone else interested:

I'll start off by saying I appologize for not taking a few pics during the process but its super basic setup. Also, this is probably a bit of a rough draft as its not pretty but has function. Tourmaster really did a great job to provide a realitively sturdy backing and seems like they made these specifically for dynas as the left side rests along the beltgaurd and the right fits snug and against the outside back of the brake caliper (with and without the throwover yoke). The frame was just a little assurance to add to the rigidity.

Anyways, I didnt want to attach it using the forward fender strut bolt to allow semi quick detachment in probably 10 minutes or so. I used a square ubolt to ensure it cleared the struts for the front. I also slipped a sleeve of rubber heat shrink tubing around the ubolt to provide a cushion and protect some paint. Using approx 1 1/2" flat stock with holes (5/16") to make an L-bracket to attach to the lower ubolt section. I rigged the ends of the stock with a good bit of black tape to help from rubbing too much into the bags. for the rear, Im still trying to think of a better solution but for now, I ran a piece of black tape on the strut for paint protection and the thickest zip tie i could find.

In posting on here, Im totally open to suggestions. I know its not pretty and plan to at least cut the bolts down a bit.

Easy chief.
No, I simply expected more people to dive wallet first into the 25hp opportunity!
