I acquired a set of Held
throw-over Panniers. Made
from super heavy duty
material. I fabricated brackets
to make the pannier semi
permanent. The best thing
was that my rucksack with a
Laptop fitted easily inside and
I could use the Tiger for work
without a top box. The extra
give in the fabric helped
absorb bumps & vibration.
The handling was fine.
Weight < 1 kg.
This Tuareg Bag from Heine Gericke
fitted perfectly between the Tiger's
bars. I attached it with Velcro. The
bag stayed on at all speeds and was
easy to remove. It was showerproof.
Great for Tolls, or storing an MP3
player, Mobile and my Starcom1
intercom.
Buffalo Slipstream Tail Bag.
Attractive & well made. I attached it
to a piece of ply which locked into the
rack and then held the bag on with 1
x 10mm bolt in the middle for quick
release. The Buffalo bag had rigid
sides to maintain shape. It
expanded 3" vertically. Looked great
on the Tiger.
All packed up and
ready for a 4 day
dash to the Alps.
Buffalo Tail Bag,
Givi Tote bag and
Oxford Map Pocket.
I was getting better
but I still took too
much! The Tiger
Handled well with
this setup.
Personally I hate
wide Panniers.
