...I'm gonna guess you're working on a mine-sweeping Cruiser...and those are the not-quite-ready prototypes....:elkgrin: -H-

Nice! It's been quite a while since I've done any exploring in that area. Love the "Beastmaster" by the way. -H-

The 100 is back from SEMA! Let's start with the African Outback Products awning. When Adolf, the owner of African Outback Products, showed it to me the first time, all I could say was, "wow!" I've used other awnings, including Hannibal and ARB, but I have to say this one takes all the good...

On my 10 day + trips I'm always sore for the first 2-3 days, as my hand gets used to holding/using the throttle for 6-8 hrs/day and getting my "bike legs". It's common for your back, shoulders and arms to be tired and sore, but it always goes away (at least for me) about day 3.... Your results...

When you first start riding longer, you will be sore. It takes time to get the muscles used to position, etc. After a few days it goes away. The best thing I did to improve my long distance riding was change from a Honda XR650L to a BMW 1150.....:) -H-

I think Paul May at Equipt mentioned that he has a 100 series Aux. fuel tank in stock, fyi. They also carry some very nice Frontrunner Aux. water tanks. -H-

Very cool! Great idea! -H-

Just found out that African Outback products will be available in February 2011 from Sierra Expeditions. -H-

AO is currently working on developing a new US distribution network, including retail vendors. I'll definitely post up when I have any ordering information. -H-

It's actually a good point to make. I've never been one to just follow the trend of merely bolting on everything that would make a rig simply look the part. Rather, I'm hoping to focus on some simple additions which will address the traveling I intend to do, while providing for the loads...

Any word on the carrier/water tank combos they're displaying at SEMA? -H-

If you want, I can leave the grille guard in Vegas for you...just in case you want to upgrade to that "expedition" look.... :coffeedrink: :elkgrin: -H-

18 lbs....you lucky hombre! Last time I was in that neck o' the woods (Bear Canyon) I was carrying a combative head injured female on a backboard with a 45lb. rescue pack.... :snorkel: Not the fun trip you had! -H-

Scott was kind enough to shoot a couple of photos at the SEMA booth, as I'm in the office this week, and not drooling all over the fun stuff! Just in case you missed 'em, check out all the great photos of SEMA in the Fireside Chat section of Expo! Looks like African Outback Products has added...

I have one of these, and really like it because I can put it on over other jackets and gear when standing around during winter sar calls. It is seriously warm! Great jacket!

You can order 'em from Jesse. Great customer service, btw. -H-

Had a bit of a road trip this weekend...takin' the 100 out to SEMA. :coffeedrink: First long road trip, and I noticed a distinct difference between the 70 and the 100...when I arrived in Vegas I wasn't beat, sweaty and windblown! The factory navigation, even with a 10 year old map disk, was...

Unless it's an OEM system, I'm not a fan of any alarm system. Ultimately, the aftermarket stuff just ends up causing problems in my experience. I find it much more useful to put a starter/fuel pump/injection pump kill switch somewhere on the vehicle. If you absolutely have to have a blinking...

It is SEMA setup time, a lot of folks are just swamped. -H-

OMG! Can I bring my helmet down Friday? Just a quick little round the block? Do I :bike_rider: or :smiley_drive: it? -H-
