I can't find my Oxford tailpack, I think I lent it to somebody, can't remember who, and I ain't got it back :(

So, I need a new 'un. Is there anything out there more suited to sports bikes than the Oxford stuff ?

Not that there's anything wrong with Oxford, I just wondered if there was anything else that maybe better or more suitable for a sports bike...

Answers on a postcard please...

Top Box?










Nah, Oxford for me. Well actually I changed to rucksack from a tail pack but will use it for trips. Obviously Humpback would suit best.

He shalt be exorcised from the FireBlade clan for crimes against sports bikes. :D

Have a look at the Kriega stuff. They do a basic smallish tailpack of about 30ltr but you can buy two addtional smaller packs which attached to the 30ltr. From memory I think the attachables were 10ltr each.

I saw it at the Excell show and it looks really good.

I had been thinking of the Kriega stuff, which I also looked at while at the London Show.

I think I'll order the US-40, although the expanding Oxford bag does go up to 50 litres (I think). I'll just have to pack less underwear :rolleyes:

I suppose that you can strap 2 together?

i've got a tailsafe, its awesome. Completely waterproof without daft covers, very secure 120+ pretty huge. But best of all, it locks to the bike. i can get all my kit in to the bag, and use the lock to lock my helmet to the seat. Its brilliant! £100 on ebay, but the quality speaks for itself. (i'll dig out some pics if you want)
