Re: My Alaskan ride
Ok thanks. I have just enough left in the budget after a comm unit to swing a box and some wiring connectors I need. Since Eastern Beaver makes some specific harnesses for the V-Strom I think I will go with them on that.

Re: My Alaskan ride
New Givi Top Box,42 liter will hold my helmet and emergency gear. Nice size mounted to the Altrider rack with their mounting kit, very solid. Its nice to use daily and lets me pull the hard bags for daily riding. Will put the hard bags on for the Dawson City trip in June, will be also be visiting on the return leg Whitehorse, Skagway, Haines.

Re: My Alaskan ride
Added some Hepco Becker tank guards before heading back to the D2D run to Dawson City Yukon Territory. Like the install and they are the only bars I could find that lets me keep the OEM engine bars.

Re: My Alaskan ride
Very nice. I still need some basic covers like the radiator even though it is high. I have seen a few bikes now that went over on the rocks on videos out west and it was ugly even with crash bars. Two guys - one with a BMW 1200gs and the other with a V-Strom 650A made a bunch of videos and really tore their bikes up IMO out in Utah I think (Youtube name Halfthrottle).
