Erik,
I've got the rack to fit the big loafer but not the bag. It's time to
stop the madness.
Can I buy your bag from you?
Thanks -

Standard loading procedure:
1. Take front wheel off. Lean front wheel on side of vehicle.
2. Slide Homer in trunk of vehicle, back wheel first. Homer must be
diagonal to fit fully.
3. Place front wheel in remaining open space in vehicle securely.

Question for the group.
It appears as though there is a general overall preference for using
cloth or cork handlebar wrap / grips rather than leather.
Why is it so skewed away from leather, especially considering so many
of us try and have our handlebar cloth or cork resemble the leather
saddles
?
Speaking strictly for myself, I've never tried leather because I'm a
cheapskate on things like that. Second reason is that I like the cool
colors you can get and create with cloth, on the cheap. Did I mention
that I'm cheap?
