  1. Hi has anyone tryed some oxford soft panniers on a 999 or 998 with any success ? I've got a slight disability that makes it very hard for me to get my leg high enough to clear a bag on the rear seat of my bike when getting on & off.
    i thought they looked like a good idea but maybe they would melt or not fix in place very well ? Thanks...
     
  2. how about somthing like this 527445_425032367508017_2107957135_n.jpg i did find that you have to get and off the bike by feeding your leg over the seat, but you do get used to it

  3. I put an oxford tail pack on my 998 this morning as an experiment and found it very hard to feed my leg over the seat especially getting off the bike, I thought that some small soft panniers might let me swing my leg over as normal but the centre exhaust might cook em !
