Family member sent me this photo... apparently my GTS is a keg hauler now?

Happy Hump Day.

That keg is empty right, otherwise the GTS would probably tip over and I don't think that the rear rack could support that much weight if it were full.

I can't work out if it's for refreshment as you ride along or whether it's one of these additional fuel tanks that finally makes the GTS into the real tourer it always could have been

You just need to strap another full keg to the front.

Am I right in thinking Jess has actually done this (not necessarily with keg mind you), or have I just imagined it?

Excellent idea for the Cannonball. I could beat out BioHazzard Ed for oddest cannonball mod

All I can glean from this thread is this: if you must have an ugly lump on the back of your Vespa (that isn't the rider or passenger Laughing emoticon ) then you might as well get the rack - no keg is going in a topbox!

Actually transporting beer is a concern of mine - thanks for helping me make my mind up

Wow! WOw! WOW!
That is the equivalent of carrying 6 1/2 cases of beer. Impressive. Clap emoticon
