Here we go... If you can make out the sign, that building is the Horseshoe Casino! And for the next tag - A scoreboard of some type. You're it!

Tony, Re: the ticket that doesn't go on your driving record. Just a guess from my days as the po-po, but something else to consider. Since traffic laws are multi-tiered sometimes (state, county, city, etc) some departments may issue citations differently so that money goes into the correct...

I think you're right, OCR. And for only 80 bucks for the trunk, I wouldn't be so afraid that I'd mess it up, either! That might come to pass down the line if I get a wild hair to do so.

Finally got the SW Motech Alu-rack and Bestem 2012 T-Box mounted up. VERY happy with the trunk for the price! Here are a few pictures of the Bestem box mounted: Since I took those pictures I moved the mounting plate about another two inches back. The holes for the mounting plate and...

You know, that hasn't even occurred to me! I do a lot of electrical work on aircraft and can't use that type at work, but it would be much more convenient for this. Have you used them with any success?

Hello all. To those of you that have installed a trunk with a brake light, or any other apparatus back there spliced into the brake light wires - where did you splice in? I have the wiring diagram and know which wires I'm splicing in to, I was just wondering what point of the wires might be the...

Reverse is probably true, too... I'd be more likely to buy beers and cheeseburgers if I could ogle a nice array of bikes while in a restaurant!

Commuted home from work. Had to work through the weekend, so commuting is the closest thing to recreational riding I've been able to do for a hot minute! I thought to myself last night on the way in "man... I shouldn't have decided to live only ten miles from work, I don't get to spend nearly...

Love the idea of this thread! Bookmarked for future reference for sure

Welcome from Louisiana!

My back ordered alu-rack just shipped yesterday. Glad to hear and see that it's good quality, hopefully I'll be putting one on next weekend.

Awesome sunrise on my way home from work... had to pull over and take a picture! Makes me consider keeping my nicer camera in the frunk, since the iPhone just didn't do the sunrise justice. Happy and safe riding this weekend, everyone! I'm working through this one, but I hope the weather is as...

We all hope for a speedy recovery - I guess it's a good sign she was worried about the bike, sure she'll be wanting to get back onto it soon. And good luck to you with your expanded household role!

Welcome from Louisiana, enjoy the forum and bike!

Welcome from Louisiana. I've learned quite a bit from the forum, it's a nice place we have here.

My wife is the same way! Even had the kids with the in-laws and some beautiful weather last weekend, but still a no go. I'll convince her eventually, and she just might like it.

If you go with Bestem, use coupon code "likefb10" at checkout for a 10% discount. Once I get the rack in and use the trunk a bit I'll report further on it. Like I said, you can tell the quality difference between it and top tier boxes, but yeah... 80 bucks!

Ah, my mistake! That'd be a heck of a mix up if you made a mistake and went to peel it off... I don't have a rack to mount it yet, but here are some pics of my black trunk sitting on the back of my red Nix, for color comparison: It's a Bestem 2012 TBox, if you're curious. Not as good...

After seeing the great results that some forum members have gotten with plastic spray (like FrankQC shared above) I thought about just painting the panels of a trunk to match my red NC. I don't know how to link to another thread from my phone, but if you search for "plasti-dip" there's a great...

Here in Louisiana the law on the books (although rarely enforced) is no exhaust modification that increases noise level above the originally installed system. I would guess that CA has that plus some extra laws since emissions are much more heavily regulated there, or so I understand. It has...
