[ST] Questions from a newbie.

[David Sergeant <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Howdy all,

I just recently bought an 00 RS.  It's just a tad better than the 92 Seca 
II I was driving before.  I have two main questions.

First, soft luggage.  I'd like to know opinions about soft luggage.  I know 
most of the RS's CAME with throw over panniers.  Mine, being used, did 
not.  I'd like to know the merits, caveats, etc of the Triumph OEM bags 
versus cheaper generic ones.  It looks like the OEM bags come with mount 
points you leave on when not in use.  Would I have difficulty in 
establishing secure (as in not flying off) installations with other sport 
bags.  Basically, is it worth the $250 OEM as opposed to the $150 Givis or 
other ones...

Second... I know it is just a matter of time until I get off my ride, turn 
on the parking light and go in to work.  Will that thing shut off after a 
certain amount of time or can I expect a dead battery when I try to go 
home?  If it just beeped a couple times or didn't let you pull the key 
out.... sheesh.

Thanks!
Dave
