Hey Guys, got my new MV TV Lusso yesterday from Houston Superbikes, the one I've been waiting and waiting on, finally the day has arrived!
So, my first project was to make riding it bearable in the Houston summer which has already arrived somehow. I had made a plan to use a portable cool shirt system which is from one of my race cars. The photos show the process. I drilled two holes in the left panniere and ran two hose connections through it, they stay mounted permanently. One end of the hoses connect to the ice water filled CoolShirt bag when it's filled and locked up inside the panniere. When I'm seated on the bike with my CoolShirt on under my jacket I just connect the hoses and the ice water is on me instantly. I rode about three hours out in the country today in 90F heat and it was wonderful, the bike I mean, the air conditioning was pretty cool, too!
