Davidbg Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I'm looking at getting some side panniers for my CBF, I'm considering the Oxford First Time Panniers kind of thing... What are your experiences of soft luggage? I'm not so keen on tank bags and I already have a top box and rucksack... any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wannars125 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Looks like they cover up the rear pegs. Can you still get a pillion on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commanda Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I bought a set of Oxford First Time panniers for my VFR (Basically, I'm too tight to buy hard cases. ) They work well, they're easy to fit / remove. With these and a tank bag, I've got enough luggage space for a week's traveling. They come with waterproof covers to keep the insides dry, but I tend to use zip-lock food bags or plastic carriers for packing anyway because I have trust issues. There's no heat proofing so be careful how you put them on if you've got a high exhaust. For the price, I think they're great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiffmasterII Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 They're spot on, I usually put my stuff inside a black bag then drop it inside a ruck sack then inside, that way everything is protected from the rain and if I get out at a service station I can just lift the ruck sack out and take it with me.
