MT Riders Club

I'm sure ya'll have seen this picture before but I noticed that the toolbox was turned sideways and there are pannier mounts on the rear. Has anyone seen any other MTs like this?

Ok I'm blind the tool box is normal

i had to look, it is one of those illusion things, it can look either way round. interesting though, i havnt seen an air force one before.

I had heard about a variant with rear-mounting for the panniers. I have had one of the rear struts adapted with a pannier mounting fitted (LH side) keeping the gunbox on the RH side.

Looks like this one is equipped with the Armstrong shaped side panel with the Harley Davidson script on it. Or is this a third shape that is not quite Armstrong and not quite HD MT350?

I didn't even notice that. Maybe they just cut some of the bottom off?

Hi

I have seen similar side panels over in the UK, I think the earlier Harley MT's utilized the Armstrong side panels with Harley embossed on them.

Hi

I have also seen these Air-force MT's previously, these also had rear mounted panniers, these are obviously for carrying doughnuts for the pilots.

The last Armstrongs had them

I was in negotiations to buy one, then it went on eBay and was sold for way too much. It was in Pyallup Washington.
