    Default What Saddle Bag Luggage

    Wife and I are taking trip this summer and asking for advice on what luggage others use. Did a search only found bags for sale. Appreciate any advice.

    You don't need to take the contents of the bike into the motel, just what you need. We have smaller bags with toiletries, a change of undies and charging needs. Everything else stays in the bike.
    Take half the clothes and twice the money! Really! No one in the next town knows what you wore yesterday.

    I like the Hopnel bags too. Good quality, won't break your wallet.

    Why don't you want to use bags? I don't understand what you are looking for if not bags.

    We currently have the hopnel bag liners for both our F3's. They get tested in June at the Hot Springs rally. A set of four bags can be had for around $100. Both Spyderpops and Lamonster have them.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    Unless one wants to unload a wheelbarrow full of yuan for BRP certified, blessed and anointed bagages, why would one pop for any other than Hopnel? My only gripe with my Hopnels is the zippers on the frunk bag may bind on the closely trimmed material but that is easily fixed with some good quality adhesive.
