fighter,

how was autoX?

It was okay...I was the fastest 69 year old, 31 of 78 overall...my son did better, 9th overall and just missed 2nd OA but he barely clipped a cone...he can really hustle his E30M3... Evil

Noticed that the oil "sight" tube on the SD has a crack in it.   boo

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Cracked as in can't ride the bike or cracked as in damn now there is more work to do?

Residual effect from the fall down a couple of weeks ago?

Cracked as in: I'm pretty sure I can still ride it, but... Do I want to risk it? We were heading to WV this morning and I'd hate to be out there and have the thing let go. Plus, now that I know about it, I'd be thinking about it WAY too much while riding. Thinking about that sight tube instead of that quickly approaching turn on the mountain road =  boo

nope. hepco-becker makes a top rack and a saddlebag mount, nothing for hard cases.

was looking at the subframe to see if there was any handy spot to fab some kind of mount and use/modify the one meant for the old multistrada.  turns out most of the bits on the back of the tard (plate holder, sigs, lower mount for side panels) all bolt onto the exhaust cans.

they share the same footpegs, and that hole behind the passenger pegs is still tapped, so that's at least one point to connect.  the only thing I can think of would be to have something drape over the top of the bike, connected to the top rack.
