Tusk Adventure Aluminum Luggage Panniers V2

Awesome on a first gen KLR650. Perfect balance of light weight and capacity. I ordered the medium panniers and they are perfect. The latches and locks are of excellent quality. I didn't have an 11/64 drill bit to drill the mounting holes but a 3/8 worked just fine.

High quality, large capacity, a tad heavy. You need to drill your own mounting holes, but as long as youre comfortable with a drill, you're fine.

These things are great. Mounted easily. I love the hinge/latch that allows you to open from either end. Mounted on a himalayan 411. Look great!

Great

Pretty Straight forward assembly/installation. I would use thread locker or some type, at least on the itty-bitty latch machine screws. I already had the mounting brackets. How you place the brackets on the panniers is up to you. I would think that some tips on things to consider when choosing placement would be welcome by many users - things such as center of gravity, recommended height. Nothing from Tusk and all Rocky Mountain ATV said in their video was make sure your passenger has room to put their feet on the rear foot pegs. I had no problems, I've done this before but others might appreciate a little more detail. BTW - I placed them for use on my KLR, they also fit okay on my CRF300Rally, wasn't expecting that, I was going to continue using my soft bags on it.

Very nice. I watched the video a few times and followed the directions. I used a large C clamp to get the right angle for the first one. Very sturdy. When you use the theft proof screws on the inside that are included, it is solid as rock.

I used the oem Honda VTX saddlebag brackets to mount these. just big flat washes and some nylon washers with home made rubber bushings. Pros: Price is attractive Good Quality. Great weather Gasket Tons of Storage space. The latches are top notch, the fact that the lid can be either fully swung open toward either direction or fully removed for convenience is a feature I didnt know I needed until I got these (Seriously what a simple yet brilliant design choice). Tool-less, adjustable lid retainer. It's a big, old, weatherproof, aluminium box. the space inside these (mediums) is more than my other bags had and these are not shaped into an odd pointy design like most available cruiser bags, you can fully use the space available to maximize what you can fit in these. The stickers are easily removable and the branding is very minimal. Structurally they are built like tanks, 4 bolts per latch, 4 latches, 4 total keys delivered. Cons: Slightly unrefined looks on the welds... thats all i got to cry about.

Great value ! Well made!
