Toys! Many Toys!

Well over the past few weeks I have had a spending spree on new toys getting ready for this trip.

(I'm not affiliated with any of these companies, I am just a very satisfied customer)

I got a heap of stuff from Andy Strapz, including a Boot Bag some Loopz, a Suff Sakz and some Double D Ring Strapz. I already have some Flatstrapz.

I also recieved a Medium Cruiser Airhawk from, "The Airhawk Guy". I loved his service! Free postage in Australia, express too.

From Aussie Disposals I have bought a neck cooler, (soak in water for 15 minutes max and then knot it around your neck to keep you cool) waterproof bags for packing my electronics (Nikon D80, iPod Nano, Palm Treo 750) and clothes in ( a smaller version of the
Suff Sakz without the double ended opening) and some tie down straps.

Ray's Outdoors has been invaluable with sleeping bag and mat, more tie-down straps (can never have too many of these), a new bag for my old dome tent. (the other one died a long time ago), and a Pacsafe 140 for security to cover my luggage when strapped to the bike.

I received in the mail today my Powerlet stuff from Bluerim the Australian distributors. I just finished installing it.

A few weeks ago (before Christmas) in anticipation of a trip some time I installed a Scott Oiler with a Dual Injector from, The Chain gang.

The following couple of entries will have details of how I put together the
Powerlet Kit, Scott Oiler and Speedo Healer. Did I mention the Speedo Healer? No probably not, because that was a while ago that I installed it. Anyway, I got that From Australian Motorcycle Components (Look under Instrumentation).

Have I even mention what motorcycle I have? No!? Really!? How remiss of me. I have a beautiful 2005 Honda Firestorm VTR1000F5. She is matte black with after-market Stainetune pipes.

That will probably do for now. I'm sure there is more I've forgotten. If I have, I will post details of them later.
