looks like HD makes one!
Golf Hog Rack: Harley Davidson motorcycle golf club carrier

they have this also
Golf Club Carrier

guess the general theme is to keep it centered on the bike...

these are off to the side
Ironhorse Caddybag, THE motorcycle golf bag carrier

i think i'll work on that next year... heh

Well you have to have your clubs, no question about it. Comes in handy when that car is coming into your lane. A real attention getter.

Default Mine so far....after 2 riding seasons

Haven't been able to remember my camera, when I'm riding and see a nice backdrop....so you'll have to settle for my driveway and garage.

Just put the new windscreen on (previous owner was realllly short and had a shorty on it) and the fender rails. Still have a lightbar to install, a hard, locking trunk, ...and an alarm system.

What I DO have (subject to my memory):
windshield
Chrome lowers
front and rear chrome fender rails
chrome radiator cover
chrome sideplates/fork covers
sissy bar and large rear rack
throttle rocker
Cobra crash bars
sheepskin/gel seat cover
Matuzu hard, locking saddlebags
driver backrest

I'm pretty happy with it so far...I love the bike....although, with 11,000 Km under my belt....am wondering if I should have gotten a Harley (okay....maybe a C90) but this meets my NEEDS....maybe not my WANTS.

Can't think of too much else I want to add. I'm running Bridgestone Spitfires on it for rubber...so far seems okay.

Was going to go on several Long rides this summer, but instead used my status as the father of an airline employee to fly cheap....and met a woman....of course....so spent most of my summer in Florida, Georgia, and S.C.

Rode to Whistler yesterday (site of the 2010 winter Olympics)....what an awesome twisty ride.

Keep the shiny side up.....and the rubber side down!

Bite your tongue!!!
A Harley?
LOL

Far less routine maintenance on the Bully

Have fun, ride safe.

We were out your way in July, rode from Calgary all up the sunshine coast.
I trust you've ridden Gibsons to Powell River?

Ever come through here, let me know.
The beauty of Alberta is that within 400-500 miles, you get scenery like prairies, desert, mountains.
It's like getting Arizona, Colorado and South Dakota all in one!
