Default Dirt bagz and new fender!!!!

OK....I finally got everything installed.I put on the fender last week and the bagZ today......all i can say is that everything is DAMN sweet ....fender installation was a PITA but besides that? all was good.......to anyone that buys the Acerbis supermoto fender mark your side to side centers on 32.5 MM for the drill holes.... that is the width...and darned if i cannot remember the lenght...58.5mm i think but DO NOT HOLD ME TO IT!!!!...LOL...a six pack of brew mounted it.....
The dirt bagz and frames are BAD ***....perfect fit and they look sweet....I'm begining to not miss placing an order for a beemer every time i look at my little D-S beast....Instead i smile...I will be doing alot of 250cc ADV riding this year and i already have 2 trips planned....

A stop in Watertown huh, thats about 2 hrs South of me if you head up rt 11, only 2 turns required too

Bags look great! I'm still not sold on the fenders but to each their own.

Looks great, Truckman! You should be able to carry quite a bit in there. Strap a sleeping bag and tent up above on the seat and you should be able to have quite a trip and be self sufficient.

Truckman! That's freakin awesome! You don't no how much I appreciate those photos of the frames...especially on the right hand side. Thanks for taking the time to do that. I've been wanting those frames for quite some time but didn't want send them back after finding out they don't clear my muffler or some such headache.

They look great! Ihad the AcerbisSupermoto fender forawile, but opted for one of the newer, longer KX style fenders becauseofcoverage. Thatin it'self wouldn't have been enough to make a change, but scuffing-up theAcerbis when I had to lay her downnudged me in that direction .
