I have a irrational fear that if I use my Kreiga tail pack on the 1098, the heat will melt the straps. Judging by the number of riders who do, I must be in the minority......again :tongue:
the kriega straps fit under the rear pillion seat/cover, they dont go under the bike at all i normally take my painted cover off and put my seat pad on when im using the kriega
Sorry, a bit late to this thread but been away in Cornwall for a few days using vaious combinations of Kriega US-10 and US-20 tailpacks. They've proven to be 100% waterproof, have useful stowage pockets and, as other have pointed out, don't leave any surplus mounting brackets. When you stop for a coffee/pee, they're easily removed with 4 clips. Of course conversely, they're quickly removed by thieving scum if you don't keep an eye out whist filling up. I used a protective grippy mat on my pillion pad just in case but to be honest they just simply didn't touch my bodywork at all. But if you do stack a US-20 and US-10 combo, it does require a alternate leg-over technique. So to speak. First pic below is a US-10, second is a US-20 Rich
You're probably right for a camping trip - just 30 litres and any more is probably too much weight on the rear pillion pad !
Reckon ventura the way to go if ou need a fair bit of kit. I have the arms but not the rack and expect to be using for any trips this year, with an old multistrada tank bag for my everyday suff
Could meet up, I'm on garden leave still so not working again until 11 March, and I'm out and about as much as poss spending the company's fuel ;-)
