Anybody buy Slingmods Ryker 3-bag system? Good or bad? Opinions?

[cueman]

Opinions good or bad appreciated. I also wonder if there’s a warranty. Didn’t think I saw anything on that. :chat: cueman

 

[Jdr00ejr]

Isn't it just still on pre-order?

 

[cueman]

Thought I read they are in stock and ready to ship. Now I would want to inform you to be fair, I just had need surgery yesterday and who knows? LOL cueman

 

[Markubis]

Its still shown as pre-order only.

I just called and you are correct. :gaah::gaah::gaah:

I can't wait to see this in person. I am liking all the lights for safety. I fabricated top case rack for my Ryker shortly after I bought it. Top case that I have holds 2 large modular helmets with communication systems and few gloves also 2 water bottles. All of that can be locked up safely. Most of time I ride by myself, I can put my Revit Sand 3 jacket, full face modular helmet, gloves gets locked up while having my coffee break.

Also, they said shipping would be about $150.00 Now, if I remember correctly, another company was selling the exact same system but I can’t find it at the moment. Maybe the other company won’t charge for shipping. cueman

I have been indecisive on this item and waiting. Glad I did as now that I know you have to disconnect the wire to remove the cases and with 150.00 shipping cost I will have to pass. Just a little too pricey for me.

 

[dklehman]

i cant imagine 150 for shipping you can have a large safe delivered and set up for that price. i was gonna buy one but if they are asking 150 to ship it i will pass till they get realistic with shipping prices.

 

[cueman]

They did say that it would be shipped in three boxes but still, I think that’s a deal breaker for me also. :agree: cueman

I was wondering same thing, also that wire that taps into the wiring in the back, must run all the way by the swingarm then return back under the seat? Would it be that hard to wire a plug harness so it's a quick disconnect would be my question.

The wiring that runs along the swingarm does have quick disconnect plugs up at the bags.

I pre-ordered these last week. Shipping to Colorado was $100, as my total was $799. I can't wait until April which they state as an ETA for the item(s). I'll definitely be putting up a review post once installed.

I guess you haven't tried to ship anything lately, it's not cheap and the bulkier the box the more it is. Since they haven't shipped yet the jury is still out on that. Look at the prices on quality motorcycle luggage and the value becomes pretty clear. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle-luggage-and-bags

I’m in Ohio and that was probably why my shipping was higher since Slingmods is in Cali. I think.

I like the setup and not complaining about the price. Price it accordingly and be done.
I do work in shipping and can assure you I can send them with next day delivery for under 100.00 demotic of course. I’m my opinion 100 or 150 is over priced for shipping and the reason I will not purchase. I really do like it and it’s too bad for me but just can’t justify the shipping cost.

What company would that be for under $100 when you don’t know the size or weight of the boxes? Overnight too? Nope.

 

[Miles42]

I think this isa Pricey, But if 150.00 is the correct additional shipping cost then its a pass for me

I've purchased several pieces of Givi luggage from this company in Italy. In addition to best prices, you can get all the luggage you want shipped to the USA for less than $35. Any shipping over $100 is additional profit..

First off until I hold one in my hand I wouldn't say if these are quality luggage or not. Also revzilla ships for free for orders over 50 bucks. I don't feel like it needs to be free but should be more reasonable.
