Rog.. we are all in the same boat.. the hardest thing is myself or my wife can't hold our new grandson who was born 3 weeks ago which is doing my wife's head in good style. we also have 4 other grandchildren aged 8/5/3 and 2 years old and they are use to staying over at ours every second Saturday night and they are missing us as much as we are missing them.

p.s hope the wife dose not ask me what I'm missing the most.. as I prefer not to tell porkies.. lol......
getting on now...  but not as old as Rog or Geoff

That looks really good the bike not calm down! Is it true it can't take a top box.

Quote from prd: That looks really good the bike not calm down! Is it true it can't take a top box?

well it can as the Kawasaki as seriously strengthened the frame over the single seated h2.. but I did hear that Kawasaki don't recommend a top box.. but I know of riders who have fitted a top box and the bike is still stable at 150.m.p.h. plus on the German autobahn.. but as my wife is scared shitless of bikes and I always ride solo the 2 panniers is more than enough room for my clobber and a few cans of 1664. and here's the proof seen this h2 sx se at the dealers with a givi rack and large top box.

As nice as the bike is, that top box ruins it's sleek lines and sex appeal. (However so does Dave)  :whistling:

and here's me thinking I made the bike look good..lol  never been a lover of top boxers or panniers but I do like the panniers design and the excellent quick on and off procedure also there key coded with the ignition key. plus with me only able to use a small 4 ltr quick release tank bag due to the satnav position most likely will leave the panniers on.

The panniers look good. Its just the top box in my opinion that doesn't somehow quite look right or suit the style of the bike.


Do the panniers have central locking......just asking.  :popcorn:

No Steve.. the bike is expensive enough with out adding central locking.. but you can buy a central locking kit but can't see the point really as I have a thing called a key!  I agree the top box looks out of place due to the design of the bike but if one is unlucky and the wife won't let you tour on their own with mates then the top box is the lesser of 2 evils as like most woman like to take clothes they never intend on wearing lol....

I dare you to show your last post to your wife.  :mfr_lol:




One other thing, did you tell your Mrs that the bike was only a couple of grand because Asda were selling them off.  :mfr_lol:

Steve.. The last time I toured Europe with the wife in the car.. my boot had 2 large suit cases in it and my back seat had at least a dozen dressers laid flat and 5 pairs of shoes in the foot well.. I would go down to the bar while the wife tried every dress on then came down with the dress she tried on first.. and then say just going to change theses shoes as they don't go with the dress. need I say more. and don't even get me started on her bad hair days.. thankfully with me being bald as a coot I don't have that problem lol.. I use to say to her.. you don't need to impress me my dear!! as you already got me trapped  lol...

also just told the wife I bought panniers for the zzr1400 and painted it emerald blazed green and diablo spark black.. as she as often said all bikes look the same with a wheel at the back and front.
