Everyone....Thank you for the kind words.

Funny thing...I won that tank bag at Cascade Moto and it is really great. I only use the tank bag when I go to Nelson and once to Baker City. Its a convenient place to keep my wallet, camera, etc...stuff I need ASAP. It comes off in one zip and is a hard bag. Its a Marsee bag.

John....STFU!

Keith is right,

But think of the riding time you're losing out on with all that polishing. Come to think of it Keith suffers from the same affliction. But in his defense he has a Cardinal red one

Zdenko - one gorgeous America you have there. Love the bags.
I'm really taken by those mouth-organ tank badges. Were they esecially cast for the America tank or did you have to adapt some old Meriden tank badges to suit? If available do you happen to know where to get them from? I prefer those far better than the factory ones on my America. A real nice retro touch I reckon.


TIA

John...they were made by Triumph for the Bonneville/Thruxton/Thunderbirds (old T birds not new ones).
Im not sure if they are still made but they will be a dealer item or ebay if you get lucky.
