thats a bit harsh mate - could have shouted at him for not using the search function.........
anyway - yes people have used some bags from one of the main supermarkets - think it was M&S thats had some zip up bags that sort of fitted.
the genuine bmw bags make the panniers even smaller so try look elsewhere if possible otherwise u are left with maine event style bags....
He has used the search button:
Read around the forum (alot) on the subject and I have come to the conclusion that I would like to try some cheap sports bags as pannier liners before committing to something like Mane Event bags or other makes. However, despite lots of nice people saying "...just bought some sports bags from Argos/JJB etc" they never say which bag. And, no I don't want to use shopping bags because you would tend to look a prat when trying to check them in at Heathrow!!
Please can I have either a web link to suitable bags, or a name of the bag and also some pictures of how well they fit. Apologies to anyone of this parish who makes money from such endeavours but I am a cheap skate
And learned that Mane Event are a popular bag (as an alternative to BuMW's own bags) but doesn't want to buy them, just yet.
He has also learned that other people bought some sports bags from cheap outlets, like 'Argos/JJB etc'. These appeal as he is a self-confessed cheapskate.
So, he has learned just about all there is to learn about alternative bags. In addition, he has chosen to reject the possibility of using supermarket bags. These, though very appealing to his skinflint instincts, do not match his sartorial aspirations when queuing at Heathrow.
Now, having drained the collective knowledge on all there is to know about alternative inner bags, he wants help (weblinks preferred) on the final details of bags, so as to avoid using any imagination - and even any remote effort - as to which 'sports bag' would be ultimately suitable.
I guess this is so he can spend more time flying his aeroplane or riding his bike? Others having done all the work.
Really, just how difficult can it be? It's a simple bag, not a technical widget for the Space Shuttle. Trot off out of the door and find one.
Are people so insecure, unimaginative and / or lazy that they cannot chose a simple cheap bag without precise help?
