I think the owners manual says not to exceed 80 mph with bags on.
I believe it actually says, "Do not exceed second gear with the bags on."
I think the owners manual says not to exceed 80 mph with bags on. Plus have some extra securement such as zip ties or pins.
I though that was a joke, but i looked it up on the Op manual and is true, and also says when carrying a passanger! do not exceed 80mph.
120 to 155 indicated for around an hour in Germany with bags on and my tail-trunk.
Stable as a rock, and I still had the old bag-clips (pre-recall).
The ZX12R I was playing with was impressed. He thought he'd lose me but both bikes were pretty well matched on the Autobahn.
In the twisties I imagine he'd pull ahead.
I also never saw that 80Mph with the bags on bullcrap.
That's just so the lawyers can disclaim responsibility.
What is this Operator's manual thingy?
