i took OnD's advice and pulled the rails while im not using the hard bags. I did not get an owner's manual, so i will be wearing out the "search function" here for a while. i was worried the 06 low bars would hurt my wrist, but actually around 70 mph its perfect. between the windblast on my chest, it is almost like i am balanced (no strain on the back, no load on the wrist). through deal's gap would be a problem, but cherohala I'd say I'll be fine. God, this bike is a blast. glad i did not get a FJR, or connie 14. although now, I am thinking I might should have traded the warrior for a brand new one

j/k. i am loving this thing though.
