    Yes, yes it is the full-on zoot capri big bumper model. It's survived many miles of very non-smooth riding surfaces so far. The unit bobbles around at very low revs, but is fine otherwise. And, I'm less ascared to turn my back on it, since it has that sort-of locking device.

    BTW, would the Pegaso accept a 140-spec rear tire? The Michelin Man has some T66s he's looking to unload, but my KLR prefers a 130.

    I chose the 276C over the 2610 solely for the purpose of dual-sport riding. If I'd only planned to stay on pavement, and often use the unit in a cage, I'd probably have opted for the 2610, and made due. For dual-sport riding/exploring, the Topo maps are a must have.

    Here are some 276C screenshots. They're converted from .BMP source files to smaller .JPGs.

    Chris,

    Because I'm on the market for the KTM 950 Adventure I think the 276C is the right one for me. SOLD!!!!!

    Thanks again on both fronts.

    That's encouraging about the durability with the mount. I have the locking one too. Probably the strangest device I've ever bought, nobody knows what the hell it is when I leave it off the bike. Now if I could just find a place to mount it where it won't block half my instruments...

    The Pegger can barely take a 140 (I'm told). I barely have any miles on my Tourances though. Need to ride more.
