I have a GS 1150 with all the bits to help you tour two up in style. I am looking for something like this in US or Canada this year. You can use mine and I can use yours?

Nigel

I have a 2000 Triumph Trophy 1200 which my wife and I use for our jaunts. You are welcome to use it. It not only has the stock detachable hardbags but the top box as well so there is plenty of storage space. She just got new tires, chain, sprockets, and an oil change. She also has a Corbin seat and bar risers. I have both the regular windshield for it as well as a tall one.

Let me know what your plans are.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
