Great set of bags. nice and dry in the rain. lots of room. no rips or tears so far. over 10k on these and still kicking the hell out of the original vendor hard bags. SO MUCH ROOM. extra strap length to add more gear. Easily fits helmet one side, rain/winter jacket and pants on the other, which includes tools, tubes, and air, etc.I installed these on the original klr650 2023 racks. has never moved or given any issues.I would recommend to anyone traveling on a budget. No need to be a snob offroad.

Tough and well made. A little tedious to get it secure on a motorcycle, but it is very versatile and fits a lot of supplies.

These soft Nelson Rigg panniers are very nice for adventure riding. I have them on my KTM ADV. They are light, easy to install and open/close, and they don’t leak. I like the removable liners they come with also. The price is great for what you get. They have plenty of room for everything for one person to go for a week camping trip. I have drug them on tree branches and rocks and have not had any punctures, so they are pretty tough also. I recommend them.

Excelente producto, tengo una f800gs (con rack) y me han funcionado muuuy bien. La he llevado a hacer off road, he sufrido algunas caídas (no muy fuertes), me ha llovido durisimo y no se ha metido el agua, no se han roto y la comodidad de las maletitas es super cómodo. Las recomiendo.

Simple and easy to use. Its also waterproof. Unfortunately, doesnt come with any sort of locking mechanism which means the bike needs to be in my line of sight at all times to prevent the panniers from being pilfered.

Nelson Rigg is my go to for quality gear that does not cost an arm and a leg. I had the previous generation of these before and they lasted 5+ years of fairly serious adventuring.I installed these on my F800GS (with Happy Trail racks) and used them for a cross country adventure trip this spring. They stayed in place, kept my stuff dry, and did not mind the tip overs.The all metal hardware is a nice touch, since I’ve broken quite a few plastic clips on other bags.The inner liners work really well and it’s extremely convenient for taking stuff in and out of your motel room. I actually like this system better than taking the entire bag off, since the bags are often covered in dirt, and dragging all that into a hotel room is a jerk move.The pads between the bag and the racks look a bit goofy, but work well.The only downside to these is that they don’t breathe or drain at all. So after a few days you’ll start getting some condensation inside the bags. Just need to remember to air them out once in a while.

Just completed a 4500km adventure ride and these bags held up very well.They have lots of well designed straps to keep the bags secure and they seal very well to keep dust and water out of your cargo. The removable inner bags are great for loading and unloading each day, leaving the panniers strapped to the bike.Buying them through Amazon was much cheaper than anywhere else I could find.

I've only ridden my '07 KLR a few times with these bags on, but so far they are well worth the investment. I purchased some racks from Dirt Racks.com to mount the bags on. The bags are very well constructed , and designed. They are very spacious and have a flat plastic spacer that provides a hard surface on the bottom of the bag but it also extends up the front and back on the inside. This keeps them in a box shape, which makes it easier to load and unload the bags. The bags are quick and easy to open and close. I can put my helmet in one no problem with room to spare. I haven't been in the rain yet, but I expect them to be fully waterproof as they're made of a heavy trucker tarp material, and the opening is rolled up to close it. For commuting, these bags are great. I can stow my jacket and helmet while at work and not worry about them getting soaked.All in all a very good buy. The hipster name brand versions would cost over three times as much.

Great quality and price overall. Can say they are fully waterproof and crash resistant. Spent two fulls days riding in pouring rain and my gear remained bone dry. Wiped out on a drenched gravel and sand road and they came out unscathed, literally (as did I!).They are not big by adventure luggage standards but definitely fit quite a bit.The hardware and straps are all top quality but the elastics to hold spare straps are not so great.Opening the bags isn't a 2 second deal, but it is easy and very secure. The rigid bottom insert gives them just enough shape and combined with the convenient removable liner bags, it really is a practical and resilient solution. On that note though, I wish the liner bags were of a slightly better quality based in feel alone, though they might outperform my expectations in the long run and replacements are available for a reasonable price.All in all, I can say these really are a great bang for your proverbial buck.

Excelentes. Son buenísimas. Ligeras pero resistentes. Han aguantado meses de caídas, golpes, raspones. Les faltó una pieza pero me hicieron un descuento para comorarla en otro lugar. Estoy muy contento losn reflejantes son muy buenos y ayudan a que te vean en la noche. Les cabe todo y son super fáciles y rápidas de instalar y se les pueden adaptar a cualquier moto no cómo las demás que necesitas herrajes especiales

Awesome bags. Very durable material and hardware. Everything stays dry and they look pretty good for a soft bag. The pros are the durable material, water-tight enclosure and the bags being soft. I even had to compress one of the bags while hauling it on a bike rack so it wouldn’t scratch my truck and it was easy to remove the hard liner and compress the bag. I love that they are soft bags. I’ve had to put my feet down while riding a few times and I have felt the bag touch the back of my leg which means that had I installed hard panniers and my leg were to come into contact with them I could have easily been tangled in the pannier or worse been pulled off the bike or broken my leg. My only complaint is that there are 4 straps that have to be repositioned every time you put something different in the bags and hooked on then retightened. It’s very difficult in the dark to find the loops to get the hooks into. I understand the functionality of these straps so as far as the functionality, they work as they should. It’s just more of an inconvenience trying to fiddle around getting everything hooked back up while your rider friends are already started and ready to ride. I hope that maybe in the future they can develop a large industrial sized zipper (in place of the hooks and straps) that would be water tight as well. Would make opening and closing the bags that much quicker and easier.

i use on my 2014 ktm 690 enduro with touratech luggage rack. they work super. given that you could spend $500 on some other dry bags, these are a bargain. super pleased with them. i used them on a couple camping trips in the past month with rough off-road riding. they stay put and have taken a beating so far. we rode and camped on the entire rim rocker trail in colorado/utah. the rough riding didn't fare the bags or mounts. rock solid. i liked the functions and quality of these bags so much that i bought the duffel bag and i also feel quite pleased with the duffel bag. these bags stay dry and keep the dust/dirt out. they're spacious. these bags and the duffel bag replaced my dryspec d20 and d38 bags. these are closer to 30 liters per side. the quality appears outstanding and they come with a lifetime warranty. i like the yellow color. highly recommended. get'em.
