Yup. It's a significant price.... for the occasional trip it's a massive investment. I have four trips this year for it, maybe five... So as long as I can keep that up, for a few years at least, then the cost becomes less painful! 🤣. Then again, folks spend north of £1000 on a set of OEM panniers and a top box for a bike that they may only keep for 2-3 years and do 2-3 tours on in total... I know it's not the same, but I guess it comes down to what you'll use it for and whether or not the cost can be justified. For many the answer will be no.
That’s the Gucci of all gear bags man! The price is WOW too! Thanks for remembering to weigh it 😂 It’s always a good idea to bring gear that fits rather than rely on what’s available at destinations 👍
Aye, it's pretty expensive, and unless you're planning on doing fly rides on a regular basis, it's probably never going to be worth it. I have 3-4 a year at least, so hoping it lasts long enough to be worth it. I'm thinking two saved helmets or 30 trips should do it, whichever comes first!
It is, though I think it's €510 without the extra internal bags, so for those that already have a helmet bag and a boot bag, it's only expensive instead of really expensive! I definitely think it's a niche use case. I'm currently doing 3-4 fly-rides a year so if I get 30+ uses out of it then I can justify the cost. (So far South Africa in December, Spain in April, Colombia in May and next up will be India in September and then Guatemala in November.... another busy year)
As an avid scuba diver, I know the feeling of being partial to your own gear. But I never traveled anywhere to go ride motorcycles. Wish I had... But carrying all my scuba gear really got old after a while. I actually did it as profession for many years, And my bag is even larger than that one. Lol, it truly is quite ridiculous to lug around the globe. But, it’s all for good times though right? Moscow does appear to have high quality bags...
