Hi All,
I'll be looking for a set of Panniers for the 'storm soon. Any reccomendations for a set that are weatherproof and a good fit to a VTR with Standard Pipes on?
thankyouverymuch

I used to use some cheap Oxford ones. They were as waterproof as any others (the zips never are) and with things packed in plastic bags inside were no probs at all. I added another tie between the two which went under the subframe for extra security whilst riding. They were only about £25 form Carnells (remeber them?)
Two bikes, still only four cylinders!

Unless you can afford a GIVI rack, the cases come on and off so you dont have to keep them on all the time! You will fit ten times the load in a hardcase normally!

Thanks Guys, They are only for occasional use (a tankbag and Backpack usually suffice). I just don't want to get something that only lasts a year or 2...
