So after fitting the luggage racks and riding with them empty over the weekend I figured it would be best to take the bike out for a test run fully laden.
Cases filled we jumped on the bike and the rain started to fall. Nothing like getting out on some slippy winding roads for your first test on the bike with large amounts of luggage!
The first thing I noticed was the weight distribution. Not only was the weight mostly at the back of the bike, the added combination of the weight sticking out from the sides of the bike made slow maneuvers interesting to stay the least. 30mins onwards and it felt like I could cope with it easy enough or so I thought....
