Hi All
Checking in for the first time having been reading your site for a while now - great forum guys . I've just traded my old Triumph Tiger 800XC in for a new ('ish) RT LE and wow what a difference. Although, to be fair, the Tiger was great for commuting and good in all weathers.
Unfortunately the weather and roads in the UK are so crap at the moment I've only had a couple of chances to take the RT out. However looking forward to some touring with the other half and have already booked up a trip to Europe later in the year.
I've got an early question which I haven't been able to find and answer to and that's the issue of finding a suitable lightweight rain cover for the bike. With the panniers and top box it's pretty difficult to find one that has sufficient width and height at the back to cover If anyone has any ideas I'd be very interested.
