New Member, Greetings

Greetings, Fellow RS Riders.

So happy to have found this forum!  My name is Tom and I've been riding since I was about 20.  Had several Ninjas 600s, CBR600, FVR800, and now my Ultimate Riding Machine, a 2021 R1250RS!

Transferred my Givi hard bags to the new scooter after painting them Austin Yellow Metallic.  I put a Corbin Gunfighter seat on this summer and now with a good backrest my wife is joining me on rides.  We are planning a multi-day ride from western Washington to eastern Washington starting tomorrow.

Thanks, for the tips and advice on accessorizing our rides.

Welcome! My '20 R 1250 RS is Austin Yellow Metallic and I had the factory bags painted to match as well. I only know of one other RS owner who color matched his bags to the Austin Yellow Metallic so we're definitely in a very small group. Sounds like a great ride you have planned. Post a picture of your bike.
