Waterproofing saddlebags

[SL Ken]

After our ride today I washed the Spyder. I had left my coat in the saddlebag. When I pulled my coat out, it was soaking wet. Is there an easy way to waterproof the side bags? I would hate to be traveling with my stuff, (clothes, etc.) in the bag and get caught in the rain and then find out everything in there is soaking wet.

I see you have an RT. Something is very wrong. My bags are bone dry! Check the seal all the way around the bag. Check the latch mechanism. It is adjustable. Make sure everything is tightened up. If still under warranty, don't touch anything. Let the dealer do it. :thumbup: Tom :spyder:

get some large plastic garbage bags... put "anti-wet stuff" in the bag... garbage bags make in a pinch "rain coats"

Agree..!!

:agree: with both. Should not happen check it out or have it done and if you have things you don't want to get leaked on or stuff you don't want to leak out put them in a bag...:thumbup:

I'm with Tom on this one; it shouldn't be happening, so check the seals over carefully...
Good Luck! :thumbup:

waterproofing

Home Depot sells a product called "neverwet". It's a two part spray that will solve your problem
