    What speed is ok with side bag?

    I just noticed (I know, you should read all the instructions first, that Mother Yamaha recommeds that you do not exceed 85 mph with side bags on the bike as this will cause handling problems. Has anyone run into this? I've hit the ton with them on, and noticed no change in how the bike handled.

    In case anyone is interested, Fulmer makes a line of helmets whose color closely match that of the wild cherry on 07 FJRs. The darker wine color is the closest.
