They are Motodry Sports bags. Motodry is an Australian brand that makes pretty good gear at the right price. I also have one of their excellent rainsuits.

lol yea all you hear is the turbo spooling and the wastegate kicking open as you try an keep up with shifting it... the fabrication is where the time is and the design as far as keeping it tight and fitment.. i only got it on in a week and a half working on it 4 hours a day but did all my planing in my head and rounded up the parts.. Its probably a 6-8 on difficulty unless you have a lot of experiance fitting pipe together and tig welding.. as far as what i changed would be the tune and finding a oil feed and return line and mounting the turbo etc.. blah blah.. nothing internally (stock cams pistons etc..) just spark plug change and got rid of the air injection (pair valve) crap so the o2 levels would read correctly on the dyno.. ill change it later on and bump the boost up to about 8 and punch out the injectors for 100hp or so

Very happy with the M50.
Can you post some close-up shots of how you have the windscreen brackets mounted on the bar? I have a similar screen but have it mounted somewhat differently.

XoZe , I don't know what brand the screen (bought it s/hand off eBay). Was off a Vulcan, that's all I know.

Plus, I am not sure if it is mounted correctly, but bracket has about 1/2 inch clearance fom tank at full-lock.

Hope these pics of brackets are helpful.

Cheers

Yeah, that is similar to what I have, however I have mine mounted towards the top of the bar...I'll try moving them to the bottom to see if I get a better fit. Thanks for the pics.

New member!!! Sold my 89 Zx600 for a oustanding profit, took some savings (thankyou wifey) and picked up my new addtion! 2005 Black with 5550 miles and really wonderful condition. Litterally in 'new' condition...and with how picky I am with my vehicles was really something I think! I love this bike...I love everything about it so far, not one complaint except unforgiving weather. Filled it up with mobil 1 10-40 motorcycle specific and a suzuki filter and looking forward to years of service. Thanks for the forum and tons of info available...great reference to have!
