Yes Flip, I always have a trip in mind. Though I have another bike for serious long distance travel. I will be having a look for some minimalist luggage for the bike at some point. I am sure a forum search will throw up some ideas, but not a priority at the moment.

Good to hear the Evo has no inherent weaknesses Luddite. Pity I didn't know about the injection relay a few days ago when the tank covers were off. One to remember for next time.

That fuel can is a good idea with the bike having such a small range. I have not worked out any fuel consumption figures yet, but I guess 100 miles is the most you would travel before looking for fuel? Again a topic I can research on this forum.

If security isn't an issue, then there are plenty of soft luggage options available, both generic and Ducati Performance (expandable).

Soft panniers
Ducati Performance did some semi-rigid panniers (96777308B), which are a decent size.

Tank bag
There's also a dedicated tank bag (96767109B).

Tail pack
Or, if you're not taking a pillion, the DP tail pack (96766709B) is useful (I've got one myself).

Another member on here, Starla, was recently selling a DP tail pack and Bagster tank bag, which, I think are still available.

You could send him a PM if you're interested, (or maybe an email would be better as he may not be using the forum anymore laurencejjohn@yahoo.co.uk).
