Default Bagger Train
A group of us are leaving for Niagara Falls today from Philadelphia; I thought that I would share this pic of my Train converted to a "bagger". I had to "unslam" my Progressive's +2. put on the detachable sissybar, saddlebags, sissybar tourpak, detatachable Switchblade smoked windshield and 2up seat w/gel pads. We (wife & I) were able to stow enough clothes for 4 days with room to spare. So for those of you questioning the versitility of a Nightrain compare this pic to my sig pic.

Riding a 'Train seems right to me. If I'm road-tripping and need to take stuff with me, I bag mine out.

Beats taking the car.

I ride from Florida to Sturgis every year (14 in a row) and I ship my stuff Fed X. I just take what I can fit in my bar bag with me, usually 1 change of cloths and smokes. Then I ship back when I leave for home.
