    I just picked up a 1976 Honda XL350 to be my beater, this summer. I would kind of like to adorn it with storage. It already has the luggage rack. I am thinking about ammo cans for panniers. I know that I can get a Tupperware type top box on Ebay, cheap. Anyone have suggestions? I will drop some pics soon.

    I am about 4’11” tall. I am interested in the Vulcan 500 but I need to know about after market seats. If a seat was available that reduced the overall distance to the ground, I might look into this bike. Does anyone know if such seats are available for purchase? I am a petite woman. I would like my first bike to be malleable in that I can make improvements once I get going. Any thoughts?…

    I think I have come up with the combo. I am going to add some mustard yellow canvas saddlebags that I bought from a local farm supply and a Tupperware top box. May have to modify the throw over part of the saddlebags. I am going to get out from in front of this devil box today and play with my new toy. I am also kind of considering swapping out the headlight to projector bulbs and the rest to LEDs. I just can’t leave stuff alone.

    lol….why do you think I refuse to even turn the first wrench on mine. I learned with my Jeep. Once you do one… the others are just a paycheck behind… as the bills get behind.
