Indeed, style over substance. As and when Mrs B steps aboard, I have a pattern HD pillion seat that bolts in place of the rear rack behind my solo seat. And I have a 70s Krauser that I bolt onto the frame in place of the RH box. A std Tonti luggage rack then clips on the back to take any luggage residue.

Well spotted that man, the deliberate mistake. It was an ironic gesture or comment on how it'd be so easy to mix up the coppers with bacon, egg and spaghetti, but in Italian. Like pollo, polla and palla maybe..

Anyone know what kind of gun the police bags are designed for?  Do they install any other stuff in them or are they just open space?
If I offended you it was probably an accident, I'm American and we use different words. Unless you deserved being offended, in which case I meant exactly what you perceived.

Thank you gents.  The bike arrived this morning.  I hadn't noticed from the photos that it does have the rear rack.  I understand the boxes are small, but I like the look.  They'll at least hold some clothes and a beer for a journey.


Any pics?

I don't have a place to host them, but she's not pretty anyway.  It's in worse condition than anticipated, and missing the air box which I didn't notice in the photos.  I did get it running the day it arrived.  It's not charging and the battery is nearly useless so I couldn't try riding, just ran it on the center stand with jumper cables to a car battery.  Put almost a mile on it without going anywhere.
