Big IV,
I'm not sure I know what you are asking. The rails look good on the Valk no matter what time of year it is.
Bernie - I think Big Ivy is saying, he REALLY likes pictures!! Can't say as I blame him, I do, too.
Mine are "out for delivery", which means, UPS can bring them as late as 6:00 out where I live. I'm at work, so will have to wait until I get home, after midnight, to see them.
My only concern is that I have the HitchDoc. I hadn't thought about it, until Fudgie mentioned it. Quite a few people just squeezed the bottom of the bags together, and put the crossmember in place, giving a "V" to the bags. I went ahead and turned a "spacer", and cut the crossmember and put in the spacer, so that my bags still sit parallel to the fender, even with the hitch in place. That added about 1 1/4 inches or so, to the width, so I'll have to work that out of the rails, somehow - I might make two 3/4" spacers, one on each side, or "flatten" the rear crossmember of the rails, but that might crack the chrome, which I DON'T want to do. I'll know more when I see it. I'll solve it, regardless, and if I end up making spacers, and others' need some, I can probably accomodate them.
I'll take some pics, too, BI, on whatever I do...just don't mind the shop, it's a mess right now!
Edit: text removed - and how did that relate to your post, "SKILLS ??". I mean, that's quite a stretch, from CT to questioning my "skills"...I really must say, perhaps it
would be better, if you WERE sure what you are saying, before you said it. Just my opinion, of course.
As for CT's on MC's...they aren't for EVERYone, just the enlightened...
