It's been a Farkle Frenzy! OK, I can't believe I used the term "Farkle". ;)

And a fine choice of farkles you've made too. I'm really digging the luggage. Are those Pelican cases?

Holy hoppin farklemania Batman!
What happened to that clean naked bike you were so proud of? :mrgreen:
Hope you get to wear them all out.
Is that an I-way GPS?

Yeah, I can't believe I kept it naked for 6 months!

Ratspike: You're right about the cases. That's the Caribou system. Have nothing but good to say about it! I was a little unsure about the "luggage" style opening, as opposed to the top-opening, but the first time I loaded my backpack into the side case convinced me of how much I'm going to like the luggage style opening. Roger at Adventure-Motorcycle is a GREAT person to do business with, and the quality of his product is first rate.

Mr. Fisherman: Yup, that's an iWay 500. I looked for many months to find a used one at a decent price. Patience pays off.... I found it for $200 :D Overall, I like it. I'm still torn between the Zumo and the iWay, they are both good units.

I still have many things on order: Stebel air horn, AMotoStuff skidplate (don't get me started on the HORRIBLE customer service I'm getting from that company), Pat Walsh dash shelf, knuckle guards, and a throttle lock.

Riding season is here!!!

Doug:
Wow! Now that's what I call catching up. Do we need to pass the hat for lunch money? Bonus time I bet. Wife still tied up in the closet? With all those cool goodies I see you're still running with the stock windshield. 'sup with that? Does it really work for you? I know some people like it. We'll have to fondle your goodies next breakfast....uh, you know what I mean.
