V7 Registry & Picture thread -- ADD YOUR BIKE

Nice luggage set up there!
I suspect that you are jesting. However, on the outside chance that you are serious, They are Ortlib Moto panniers, which are no longer made, and an Ortlib-style dry bag. I will be gone for a few weeks, the reason I seem so over-packed. Always on the bike are the tail box and a set of shopping baskets that are between the panniers and the bike.

No, I was completely serious. I have had plenty of hard luggage mounted on bikes (and still do on my California 1400). Waterproof strap down/throw over luggage feels more like touring to me. I think my feeling for that is when I get packed for a long tour I end up with stuff lashed on top of hard luggage anyway! Your setup totally vibes with the V7, if you get my meaning. Thank you for the details.
