Hi new member here from Ohio. I've ordered the SW Motech SLC rear pannier side carrier mounts, and wondering if I will have to relocate or use the shorty rear turn signals I've read about? Id like to have everything there when I do the install...nothing is worse than adding new accessories and having to wait for other parts to arrive to make it all work together.
I bought mine used from a semi local bike dealer, and was told it was bought back by BMW because of the side stand/frame recall, repaired and offered again for sale. It did have some scuffs on the right side fairings and exhaust, opposite the side stand???!!! Weird right? I think the right side of the handlebars are tweaked also, as it contacts the body.
I hadn't ridden a motorcycle in close to 30 years, but made the hour and a half ride back home unscathed and undropped, with my nervous wife following. It was a comforting feeling to be in the wind again, after I cleared the larger towns, and got on the backroads.
I've been lurking for about a week reading the posts and trying to learn as much as possible...thank you all for having me...when I figure out how to post pics, I will.
