Jealous. I love those saddle bags.
 
Sigh...

Someone in a full-sized van blew a stop sign (he said he slid through it, but there's no way) and slammed into our Prius on the day after Christmas. Fortunately my wife and daughter were fine except for a couple of small cuts from the shattered glass. The Prius however did not survive.

So now I am the, uh, proud (?) owner of a minivan. Damn thing is probably the nicest vehicle I've ever owned (although the rolling robot that was the Prius was hella cool). Butt-warmers, full leather, multi-zone heat/ac, DVD player, the whole shebang. Well, technically it's my wife's vehicle, but I was wondering just how many motorcycles I could fit in the back once I take out the seats... /evilgrin

You're going to love your van. You'll be able to easily fit two bikes in there.

Try doing that with a prius. Plus they are great for road trips..
 
My wife also has a Honda Minivan. It is awesome.

Fit the brandy new Motorcycle lift in it, as well as some luggage and my wife and daughter.
 
those honda vans are the best on the market IMO. and they are huge when you flop all the seats down. I'd have one but here in the republic of Canada Honda only brings in the top model and they charge 10K more than they cost in the US Market.
 
We bought used, only reason I could afford it.

I can fit a 4x8 sheet of plywood in the van if I remove the middle row of seats.
 
Same here with a Toyota. I have a bigger bed than most trucks, and stuff stays dry.
 
Picked up this RD400 parts bike on Sunday. She runs and everything! Sorry guys I already told Brad he could have first dibs on what I didn't want. ;D

 
We've got a Safari (Astro) van. Great little van. Full frame and AWD, which comes in real handy up here in the great white north. Its also taller than most mini-vans making loading bikes much easier. We use it as the shop vehicle to pick up bikes, take them to shows etc. We have also been known to do roadside assistance, such as picking up a broken down Virago. ;D
 
That doesn't really look like a parts bike, ha.

Alloy Swingarm, Chambers, Steering Damper, Tracker-esque seat, upgraded rear suspension.

Looks like a ready to go motorcycle to me.

I want to put those parts you mentioned on my RD350. My 350 was the first bike I ever got running and i have a soft spot for it.

Sure I don't know what you're talking about.

Wow, beautiful bike. Bates bags by the looks of it. Is that a Wixom fairing?

Nope those bags and fairing are bone stock kawasaki. This was an 'a' model, or deluxe. Everything you see is stock from factory.

Get a 4'-6' piece of angle-iron and weld-bolt-etc to the end piece of the base.....round the ends, stubbing your toe on a piece of angle-iron SUCKS. ;)
