Nelson-RiggNelson-Rigg Black Dual Sport Enduro Saddlebags, Fits Most Dual Sport/Enduro KTM Honda Yamaha & Suzuki Models

Great saddle bags. I like the fact it fits both my KLX 300 and the 390 Adventure. Once you figure out the best way of securing the bag, it’s easy to unsnap the straps and mount it on my other bike. Dumped the bike with them on and other than needing a cleaning they held up well. Expand when needed and somewhat collapse when empty. They don’t flop around. Love the back pouch for holding my tire irons. The flap is secured two ways to keep them tight without rattling. Don’t ride in the rain much, but have washed the bike with them on and everything is dry.

The quality is like expensive saddle bags. Also the capacity is bigger 25lt (I would say at least 30lt). Very little weight (less than 3.5kg per bag). I put it on my Africa Twin and looks very beautiful. I install it without the quick release system and it is very stable.For sending to Greece i paid 26.8€ taxis so all together with shipping costed me 276€Best value for money and super quality.I would buy staff from Nelson Rigg with the eyes closed.

I was a little reluctant to use these on my dirt bike because I thought they would just come loose and be a problem but these saddle bags work great. I have taken them on some of the rockiest whooped out roads and they stay put. Occasionally, on very big hits, the bags will bounce up and hit me in the rear but they go right back where they belong and I rarely notice they are there. It was definitely nice not having to ride with a backpack.Update: Dec 5 2018 Took these bags on a 750 mile loop and 150 miles in a seam came apart on one of the bags leaving a huge hole. Luckily I had my items in another bag inside this saddle bag or I would have lost things. I got about 270mi total out of it. Not sure if it is a quality control thing or design issue. The other bag still looks solid. Put in a warranty claim. Keep yall posted.2nd Update: Dec 7th, I put in a Warranty Claim. I received an email immediately that said I would be contacted within 24hrs with an RA#. It is now Dec 16th and I have not heard anything from Nelson-Rigg yet.3rd Update: Dec 19th, I ended up calling NR on the phone. They were very helpful and I was sent the RA instructions while on the phone. I shipped everything to NR as instructed within a few days.4th Update: Jan11th, after holidays I sent an email checking on RMA status. I got an email the same day saying they will be shipped on Jan 12th. I received the bags today on Jan 14th. Instead of fixing my one bag, they sent me a whole new set.5th Update: Mar 25th 2023: Adding some advice when using these bags and more pictures.#1: Bags are not as secure to the bike as they should be. They flop around a lot and this movement of the bags causes the weight to put a lot of stress on the seams and straps. Every bike is different, but I was able to fix this problem by using 40" long 3/4" straps and zinc buckles to secure the bottom ring of the bags to my side plates and add some compression. After 2000 miles of hard riding in Idaho, Baja and the Arizona desert, crashing, dumping the bike numerous times, I have had zero issues. Bags stay very secure. Plus they do not hit me in the butt on curb size bumps. I rarely notice the bags at all now.#2, Bags are not water proof at all. Make sure you use 20L or 10L dry bags inside each saddle bag for things you want to keep dry. That goes for tools as well to prevent rust. After being soaked to the bone in Baja rain storms for hours, my clothes were completely dry using dry bags.With these nods, the NR bags held up to tons of hard abuse and are still like new, except a few dirt stains. Also, realize they will stain your side plates. Painters tape can help with that if that worries you. Still 4 stars overall.

Totally fit my husband's Kawasaki dual sportsbike and he is so jazzed!!!

I scratched my head for a bit to figure out how to install it. I didn't know for sure how to figure out which side was forward. Note: installed on an XR400. There are instructions with pictures, but I was still confused for a bit.I have an aftermarket rear rack and it is a nice place to tie the rear attachments, although the supplied fender mount would probably work fine (I didn't try it). I think I would have had troubles finding a good bottom tie down location on a stock bike, but I have aftermarket rear passenger pegs (mounts welded to subframe and pegs bolted to mounts). These passenger pegs proved to be perfectly positioned for this attachment. I really don't know how it would mount properly and securely without them. The bags rest against my plastic side panels; the muffler side gets quite warm, but no melting and I don't seem to need any heat shield. And I'm not worried about more scratches on the 24 yr old plastic.I'm getting old (in my 70's) and carrying a heavy pack with all my stuff is just proving too hard on my back. I've off-loaded some stuff onto a tank bag, but I found I needed to offload more. The bags nicely take my 4.5 quarts of water (1.5 quarts in a flex bag), tools and food and I could probably squeeze some more in there. But it's enough. I still have to carry my hiking boots in my backpack; my size 14's would barely fit by themselves and not with water bottles too, although maybe I could fit a small water bottle into each boot).I found some more joy in riding as with less weight on my back, I can start riding more like i should (standing through obstacles, etc.) rather than riding like an old manIt can be a little uncomfortable when I'm sitting back and am on the forward strap (I have the rear strap on the fender, just behind the seat). Since I don't go on long rides, it's not a problem for me. But others might have a problem. I investigated, briefly, putting the strap UNDER the seat. It's not a natural fit to do that, but it might be viable. But not worth it for me.I struggle to get on and off the bike as it is. It adds just a little more difficulty in that the bag on the far side can lightly catch my boot. This might improve with better technique. But the issue is minor. I don't even know it's there when riding (except for my butt when I slide back).No experience with water yet (I don't ride in the rain anymore nor do deep water crossing), nor crashing.Bottom line: glad I did it; no immediate quality problems; helps significantly; glad I didn't buy the more expensive bag with half the volume.
