LUGGAGE OPTIONS

[Deleted account 250319001]

Plus I bet they’re cheaper and better quality, given my experience of their panniers over the last 10 years or so.

Sadly they’ll be missing 20 USB charging points for those that spent so much on their awesome steed that they can’t afford a hotel or even a campsite pitch fee so have to resort to wild camping .

Wild ? I’d be fucking furious

I'm still waiting for you to clarify how they are better quality than the OE luggage ?

And the claim they are lighter ?

Can Only find info on the BMW OE =

Empty weight left pannier	5.920 kg
Empty weight right pannier	5.920 kg

There is no mention of any weights for Bumot. I wonder why ?

Don’t hold your breath

All these alu top loaders can be considered light weight, even the GSA oem. The GS vario side cases are over 7kg so the difference between these GSA top loaders is pretty much irrelevant

Apologies, It was another member in the thread who mentioned weight.
Anyway, Enjoy your cheaper, budget luggage. It will be OK for the odd Costa, or hotel jaunt !

The only luggage I’ve ordered recently was SW Motech . Now that is much lighter , undoubtedly better made and not on back order
Enjoy parking your awesome £30k steed in a bog and pissing in a field .

Some of the pissing places I've parked my steed would blow your simple mind. Sometimes, WIld camping is the only way to be really free and one with nature. Just hope its all available on the 1st March.

Yeah ASA, don't need it.

Bumot luggage much better quality- makes anything else look cheap

 

[Edventure]

Just everything.

pannier rails fit without bending into shape
They are waterproof
Lids do not fly open as they have friction hinges
Locking mechanism better

Agreed.
Most robust and fully waterproof panniers I’ve ever had.
Usually work out cheaper than stuff such as BMW ones and Bumot even do versions to fit straight on GSA racks including the new 1300 monstrosity mounts.
Only issue is they don’t come with a power station built in so no good if you’re wild about camping. But for normal touring folk….the best option.

This is referring to the older Adventure pannier's ? Not the New 1300 Adventure panniers in the 1300 forum ?

"Much Better"

pannier rails fit without bending into shape ......... Have no idea what you're on about ?
They are waterproof .......... My LC adv panniers or top box never leaked ?
Lids do not fly open as they have friction hinges .......... Never heard of that? And mine have never done that ?
Locking mechanism better ......... Than the new 1300 adv luggage ? Dont think so.

Sounds a load of twaddle to me And certainly the wrong forum !
