You have to notch the rear Hump, to get it to fit on with the rack. I did that very carefully with some masking tape and dremmel tool. wwith the Ventura rack on there, the Busa looks like the ultimate sport touring machine!





Before notching the hump & marking it out






Spare fuel fits on there great too for Iron Butt riding.

420 kms (261 miles) per 21 litres (5.54 gallons) tank on a 1580 stroker motor with the right gearing n tuning and somehow me don't think you'll have to carry spare fuel.

I'm glad I'm not Martina!

Grunty, you're on the money there. Mine had snapped through as well.

Struth Pash, that insulation tape wouldn't last long if you were crossing the Nully! I can see them dropping off and onto the road in front of the highway patrol car that's been tailing you for the last 500km!

I've got a Ventura Mistral rack and bag aswell,i have wet weather gear in it with a spare jumper in case.

8500km's old hanging over the back and no sign of anything going wrong.

How much was that set up on your bike, and do you have a link for the hard bags..?

Supplier is at Mt Alford which is situated an hour & a quarter south-west of Brisbane Queensland (according to their website)
http://www.motorcycle-parts.com.au/k-wing_system.htm

Cost rounded to whole dollars:
3 x 47 litre cases @ $348 each = $1044
Top Case Mount = $242
Side Mounts = $345

Total = $1631 + postage which I can't recall but I do remember it wasn't much.

I originally purchased just one case and the top case mount. A bit later I got the side mounts and a second case. That way I could run with either just a top case, or two side cases. The cases are identical and can be used as either side or top case.

At a later date I purchased a third case, this one with a red panel on the rear which I use as my top case.
