Wow, some good prices.

Anyone used the humpback panniers on a K3/4/5 and can vouch for how good they are? Very interested at that price...

i use them on my CBR, they are fine,

only trouble is, they come with seperate waterproof covers, the panniers themselves are not waterproof, so if it rains, you gotta put the covers on em.

but its probably the same with all the panniers,

they come with bungee's, straps, so you can put a strap on em and carry em off the bike,

the tankbag converts into a backpack, and is expandable (as are the paniers and tail pack)

when you got the paniers on the bike, the panniers have more bungee points if you wish to bungee more stuff to em (like i did :))
