All,
Looking at some Hepco Becker bags for my Griso with the C-Bow mounting system.
With the OZ dollar still in pretty good shape they are reasonably priced and and look to be a good option.

I don't want anything massive and from what I can see they appear simple to use with the rack system fairly unobtrusive and simple to remove when not required.

Any feedback would be welcomed especially form those who have experience with the C-Bow mount system.

I would recommend that you install the luggage rack first, if you want the Guzzi rack.

Had not some (loathsome) spammer not revived this thread and I stumbled on it (before Todd shot the offender), I'd have missed this.

Saw Dan's pix on w/g when I asked about tank bag, and was mightily impressed. Ditto yours, and the HB's are even more impressive on your black machine.

May I ask what that system costs? In my experience, HB runs high, as in "HOW MUCH?!" :woohoo:

I have bid on a MG set-up on ebay. If, as is likely, and I don't get it, I am inclined to go the Corterch sport-bag route, but will think about HB's ... and a home-equity LOC! :laugh:

Fluctuation of the euro against the dollar, I'd suppose. It's tough living in a third-world economy.
