I think it's correct not to go off topic in a post, but Valerio just wanted to provide you with what he sincerely thinks could be a benefit for every Connie owner.
Drilling a bag is his solution, could be interesting for someone could be useless for others.
Anyway, in his last post Valerio is upset because it seems you don't appreciate his suggestions.
The language barrier sometimes twists the real meanings of the phrases, so I just want to tell Valerio that no one is saying that your ideas are bullshit (I hope bullshit is allowed in this forum: I had a bad experience in another one managed by a mentally disturbed administrator ;) ...) .
I suggest you, if you haven't done it already, to open a specific thread about your suggestions, hints and advices.
Fellow riders will have the choice to argue about them in a free way.
In this post it's off-topic.

I translate this last part in Italian for him:

Valerio, nessuno sta dicendo che le tue idee sono stronzate.
Ti consiglio, se non l'hai già fatto, di aprire un thread specifico per i tuoi consigli e proposte.
Gli altri piloti potranno liberamente scegliere se commentare o meno le tue idee :)
In questo post siamo off-topic.

Ciao

This is a thread discussion on the Canyon Cages per se, not pinning bags or various other subjects.  There are other threads for that.  I don't mind a little veering off course, I do it as well.  We're guys, it's easy for that to happen to us.

My previous post was a kindly reminder.  No malice was intended nor was it singling out anyone.  However and that's a big HOWEVER, my mentally disturbed deranged alter ego could surface if that friendly advice isn't heeded or there is push back over it.  We don't want that to happen.  It's not nice when that happens.  Then I get to feeling bad afterwards.  It's no good for anyone.  Any further posts outside the parameters (I like that word) of this thread will be deleted.  End of discussion.

That is as diplomatic as I have ever seen a mod be!

Bravo!

Can I get a copy of the install instructions so I can pretend to read them before I tear the box open like a little kid on Christmas day.  ???

For the 2010-2012 Canyon Cage, correct? I've added them for you as an attachment to this response.

Thanks for answering him, Jim! You hit the nail directly on the head! We do indeed make a Canyon Cage for the 2008-2009 Connie and it's part number #1400-400. If you're also interested in the Saddle Bag Guards for that bike as well, they're #1400-300.

Well, since you are in the mood to spend, go for the best :)    Skip trying to ruin the Canyons with addon's that look crazy and are WAY too wide and far away to be practical and get Ronnie's Highway Pegs (which are not really pegs).

+1... The powdercoat isn't as quality as the bars, but the pegs will work for the times they are on the bike. They look like they'd disassemble pretty easy if they need to be refinished.

I have to go with Max on this one, the Gen 1 Canyons will not work with Ronnies so I had to sell mine and bought Rivco's.  No way they are comparable, if I had a 2010+ C14 Ronnies are the only pegs I would consider.   They satisfy both form and function.

I went down a different path or my pegs...









I welded in a little spot on the peg itself to decrease the droop of the peg. Leveled it out since the welded in tab follows the angle of the whole bar. I didn't compensate for that and really it worked out better to get to the bolt next to the fairing. Way comfortable.
