How to pack a mule.Luggage info.

Hi to all,
I just returned from a 2800 mile holiday tour all in one piece. The T100 started weeping oil 'round the valve cover gasket and developed a leak at the neutral switch. Not that bad-the poor thing had a hard time-dragging me, mrs Grey and a good portion of our household around.
The day I arrived back home I found a message from a forum member with a request for more info on my luggage carrier and cases.That's the second time someone wanted this and having lost the first tutorial (how I slammed things on the bike) during a major PC crash I made up a new one.
I use this setup for two years now, it's only on the bike during holiday trips. I never had problems with it, even tho it's made in a hurry.There's no doubt somebody can build a better one but perhaps some of the things I did can inspire him.Be sure you know what you're doing if you want to have a go at it yourself- I'm just showing what I did and take responsability for my own work only-If you -heaven forbid- get hurt by trying the same, it's your game!

Here's the link to download a zipfile with lotsa pics:

Grtz, Thieu.
