The bags have the new quick release so it takes a second or so to get them off. Same with the rear seat.

Dang! That is one amazing paint job. Its probably a good feeling to know you won't be running into a bike that looks like yours anytime soon. Kudos.

I like the color scheme. I was expecting a WWII bomber nose art work from the title.
