BRP saddlebag liners vs Hopnel's

[Wmoater]

Going on a road trip. I have been using singe sacs in the saddlebags for a while and they work fine. My wife said get a pair of liners. She just saw in one of the riders RT while traveling on a covered bridge run. Which is better in your opinion the BRP saddlebag liner or hopnel. Basically price is $40 or so for Hopnel vs BRP is $59 which I was expecting way more. ( difference in zipper, quality, material, fitting)

Can't speak to Hopnel but have been using BRP's for several years(8) and they have held up well. Quality is very good throughout.

We bought the Bestem brand. Very nice fit and quality. Buy direct from their website vs. Amazon and save a few bucks.

I've been using the Hopnel bags for four years and find them very satisfactory.

Been using Hopnel since we bought the 2014 RTs. Fine ---- except the zippers. But a little chapstick helps.

BRP liners, they're a perfect fit and hold far more than you'd imagine when looking at them.

Using the Hopnel set. Tremendous value. Used 'em when I had a Goldwing too.

I am also using the Bestem brand. They are a great fit and make use of all available space.

I'll add another positive response for the Hopnel bags. We have front and rear trunk bags and "saddle bags" for both Spyders and have found them sturdy and reliable over several years use.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I was pretty much convinced to buy the Hopnel liners from Value Accessories for $35.50 + $5 shipping which was the best I could find. Then I looked on Ebay and to my surprise I found a “new” set of BRP liners for the RT for $45 free shipping. So for only $5.00 more and no tax I bought the Can Am BRP liners. When my wife saw them in a guys RT they seem a bit more thicker and rigid looking than the Hopnels picture. Never seeing the Hopnels I am sure they are as good as everyone says but I think the BRP ones will work perfect and for $5.00 more I stayed OEM.

The Hopnel have been working fine for almost 4 years.

If you are on the cheap, Harbor Freight has some very well made tool bags in various sizes starting at $4.99 each. One or more of them will nicely fit your saddle bags. I use a medium sized back pack and it fits nicely, upside down in the frunk. There are many ways around the pricy stuff if you just the time to look and listen.
