Hello from Spain

I have my new v4 1100 factory since last Christmas but still haven't ride the first 1000 km (cold, snow, wind, rain...wonderful winter!).

For me this has been a little bit crazy cause I am a long routes lover, and while my friends buy big trails, GTs, and that kind of bikes I decided to go to the dark side with this Beast dressed like an Italian young girl.

For that reason I am going to prepare it for tourism: I will change the beautiful tail of the factory for the double seat of the RR, a new wind screen (the Aprilia original), bagster tank bag, and some details more that I will show you later.

Would I reach my dream of a ready for Travel Tuono?. Will see.







Aleeee....

Sure it isn't, but don't believe is easy here. The place where I live is known in Spain as the coldest one (Burgos city)
Of course I wait for ride in a sunny day but with very low temperatures and ice in some corners.




Aleeee...

Thank you guys!

Hi Guru. Have a RSV1000R and, like you would like to gear it for touring - high windscreen, leg protection, panniers. Am at a loss as to sourcing suitable, tasteful components. How it would look when completed is important. Any ideas ?

Hi Dandee, we are going to modify probably one of the best design exercises in motorbikes, the work will be delicate. For sure.
I want to touch the next:

High windscreen (Puig, the soft smoked one), hot grips Tecno globe Gold as shown in the photo (are really discreet, but I have no idea about how install them),





CNC raisers for the handlebar (you have very interesting options), the Bagster bag that you can see in the photo, and for the luggage I have ordered three bags from Kriega, a couple of US10 and a big US30. My idea is use them over the rear seat when ride alone and build a little tower over a Ventura rack when I ride with my wife (and a Tribord cover for the rear seat -Finally I have real cherish for her;-) )
Besides this I have installed my old indicator for the pressure and temperature in both tires and what more can I need?.




What have you think for leg protection?.






Aleeee....
