Mostly happy with the bags. Could improve the way the excess straps are held in place when riding (Maybe Velcro) The little plastic clips don't keep them from flying in the wind. I even turned the clips around so that the wind wouldn't push them out of the clip to no avail. Also the closure strap that pulls the bag together from side to side that are not adjustable are to long on my 38 liter bag (fine on my 31 liter) so I can't pull in the excess material to make a nice neat closure.

Love these bags. I’ve had hard and soft bags and this is the perfect compromise to me. Hard bags are the most convenient and secure but they have their issues also. They aren’t as forgiving when filtering and even a simple tip over can leave them severely damaged or broken off. They can also lose the waterproof seal
The soft bags I had were a pain to get in an out of and hard to find items when I wanted them. Also hated winding up straps and tucking them in every time
The lone rider bags are very forgiving in a accident and if they get caught on something are far less likely to cause an accident
You can’t smash or permanently bend them like a hard bag.
They pack nice like a hard bag and close and open easier than any soft bags I’ve seen
They are somewhat secure, can’t just grab stuff out and run.
Like I said I over research everything and Lone Rider looked to be the best choice and disappoint in quality or function

I'll let you see how the MotoBags react after a meeting with a tree :)
I have the MotoBags since 2 years now, I used them on 3 motos, and showing the world how it can resists to a crash like that seems to be a good idea !
This is the 45L MotoBag, an old one that I bought to a friend 2 years ago.
Nothing in the bag was damaged, and I was running at 50km/h after a slide due to petrol on the road.
Thank you for the quality of the bags, I had finished my trip even if the bag heat that surprising tree. XD
Thanasis D.
Making a trip about 1500km with the motobags
I am very satisfied with them.they were very solid even with high velocity.
I tried them in cobbled roads and they were perfect.
I showed them to a bmw dealer and he was impressed with the quality and the appearance.
I was very safe riding with the motobags.
I will recommend this product to anyone.
Thank you lonerider.

These Panniers are awesome. They are very well designed and built. They look great as well. Tons of room, easy to pack and use. I highly recommend them to anyone that’s looking for any type of bag for their adventure bike.

These bags are really nice and I bought them to replace some hard aluminum bags that I have been riding with for years. At least I'm not worried about my leg getting caught or broken by my luggage any longer.
I will say that installation really took a long time to get right. I guess if you have the factory BMW racks it is supposed to be easy, or already setup for them. I don't know why the fasteners that hold the bag to the backplate are T30 Safety fasteners. It meant that I had to use the slippery little tool supplied instead of one of my own, or a power driver. I can't tell you how many times I dropped that tool during the process. For the non-exhaust side, I managed to find a spot for the latch that only required me to move the latch. For the exhaust side, I had to get out the grinder and get creative.
Now that they are on the bike, I'm glad I don't have to go through that again. It will be fairly easy to take them off and put them back on. It's just the initial setup process that was not easy.
The locking latch is a very robust piece and the cover for the lock tumbler is a nice touch. Getting the lock latched is very hard for me on both. Maybe my rack tubing is a little bit bigger than the stock rack? I also got creative here with the Dremel and ground a little lead-in for the latch plate. It helps but I still need a tool to push down on the latch while turning the key. Oh, that is the other thing, reaching the lock tumbler with the key is also very tight for my motorcycle.
Removing the plastic skeleton from the bags, or reinstalling it, is sort of a wrestling match. I don't plan to do it very often. The velcro on both sides and just the amount of it, make it very hard to pull. You have to pull it from the skeleton piece and then pull the skeleton piece from another velcro slab on the bag. If the skeleton is out, getting the flap off the side of the bag is pretty rough.
Opening/closing of the bags takes a lot more time and effort than hard bags but probably about the same as any other roll-top system. For the added safety of a semi-soft bag, I think it is worth the time/effort.
There are some little hooks that are supposed to hold the extra strap length on the straps that hold the roll-top down. I didn't find any orientation of these that would keep this excess in place. I ended up feeding it back through the clip and under the rest of the strap and tucked into the side of the bag. Kind of hard to explain.
Sylvain E.
Sincèrement je n’ai rarement vu un produit avec autant d’intelligence au niveau de la recherche et développement, si on cherche une vraie valise s’emi-rigide, étant capable d’absorber les chocs, étanche à 100 % et d’une facilité déconcertante à poser et enlever sur votre moto, ne cherchez pas plus loin, les motobags sont celles qui vous faut!!!
James E.
Stop looking and just buy them already.
James E.
From an engineering perspective, these bags are fantastic! The design is solid, materials are great, and to top it off they also look great. Highly recommended!
Tomas M.
I love this panniers, they looks very nice ! Nice shape, and a lot of space . I just tried them in off road . They did very well ! Waterproof and strong . I had to pull my bike from the hill couple ft. on side on one of the LR panniers and I was surprised that there was no damage !
The only think About those panniers: you can see scratches at them . It’s just because it’s not from same material as Mosko .
But I was able to put there much more stuff then you can put into Mosko panniers.
I love them ! They worth it for the price !
Michael G.
I think if I were to purchase this again, I would just get the same size for both sides. You could pack smarter and distribute weight proportionally and get more potential/better use out of it in lieu of going with one side smaller, or larger than the other side. The offset does have a major difference in appearance. These bags are top notch quality and the included quick removal setup did take me some tweaking to get perfect, but these bags are sweet - very sweet. The internal dry bags are awesome for packing. Love the molle straps, you just can’t have enough of them, they should be everywhere.
Damien Z.
By far the most sleek and smoothest set of moto bags I've ever had the pleasure of using. It's just so apparent that they thought of every possible way a rider would want to use these bags. Seriously, there were so many ways to strap down my gear on rugged, off-road terrain that every time I faced a new challenge, I was always surprised with how easy I could re-arrange my gear to work with Lonerider's gear.
Nothing was too cramped and there was never a point when I felt like I had to sacrifice my space or my time with these bags on the road. The best motocamping experience I've ever had, hands-down.
Marcelo D.
Great bags for
Moto!!
Marcelo D.
Great!! I realy love it!
Rashad U.
I chose this bag system because its between the rigid and soft bags. I easily installed it on Touratech racks.
Simply, the design and build quality is super. The bag system is expandable with many smaller bags that can be placed on the moto bags. I only bought the two bags, 38L and 31L and from there I will expand gradually to fit my needs.
I'm looking forward to take it on my 1st long trip.
Shipping was fast too.

I like the feel and look of the bags and how they can fit lot of luggage! I can actually fit my helmet, boots, jacket, pants and gloves in the 31L + 38L MotoBags which is perfect as you can lock the bags. What I didn’t like is that it was not a “quick fix” to mount them to the bike the first time. That said, unfortunately they did not fit my pannier rails so I had to drill some new holes and move all the bits to fit the “quick release” system. They work well now once the adjustments have been done! Also, love how I can “squeeze” the bags together when they’re empty, however they are a bit awkward without the “expansion thing” on the inside - which does not fit if you want to minimize the bags during parts of your ride. Also, I cannot ride with them expanded all the time as the bike get so wide that it becomes challenging to fit through traffic when necessary.

Great 31L & 38L panniers.
Replaced stock Vario panniers with Lone Riders. A bit time consuming to install the first one on my EVO rack but once mastered, the second one took less than 10 mins. The online LR videos are very helpful.
Very roomy and elegant.
Chose these over the metal panniers and very glad I did.

4 stars because although the bags are mostly well thought out, the mounting hardware on the inside of the bags that attach them to the metal carrier plate has a major design flaw.
The inside plastic horizontal bars have recesses that are meant to retain the nuts of the bolts that enter the bag from the outside.
Plastic to hold metal parts in place is a pretty bad design choice. What happened to me was that one of the bolts was put on so tightly at the assembly plant that it was impossible to apply enough torque to loosen it. And you need to do that if you have to adjust the metal carrier plate.
There was no way to get to the nut with another socket to hold it in place while trying to unscrew it from the other side. The only way to get it off was to break the plastic bar in half and then using dremel to get the bolt off the bag.
To me that's both QA and design issue - I've notified LR and they helped by sending the replacement plastic part free of charge but without the bolt I had to damage to get it off. No big deal but I would prefer more attention to detail.
Overall, the bags are good but I'd replace the plastic bars with a strip of aluminium, which is both lighter, stronger and allows access to both the nut and the bolt at the same time.

I originally had the BMW vario cases for a few months. Then I got these. I love them. 100% waterproof and dustproof. They load more and looks way better. Easy to attach items on the outside of the Motobags. They are semi-rigid so they are safer to use. Overall very happy with the product.
Dennis M.
The motobags are okay. I had a little problem with the assembly. They are waterproof to travel and have a lot of space.

Pre installed, just had to file a piece of metal to be done, nothing too difficult
Outter shell seems to be waterproof completely without the red inner shell
Looks especially good on the motorbike

J'ai découvert cette marque par hasard, je ne m'en passe plus!
Polyvalence modulabilite et robustesse. Les mots clés de leur bagageries.
Je compte rajouter d'autres petites sacoches. Elles sont très pratiques pour ranger et organisé de l'équipement quand on part en vadrouille. Outils, kit crevaison, compresseur, allume feu, accessoires, des plaquettes de frein d'avance,... Tout est possible, tout est accessible.
Je viens d'installer le kit de démontage rapide, c'était la touche qui manquait j'en suis super satisfait et je recommande sans hésiter. C'est un investissement qui vaux le coup!
Eric D.
My wife had a motorcycle accident, the bike rolled over and went off the road into a stony embankment. I had installed the motobags on the motorcycle and these cases are simply unimaginable:
- they probably saved my wife from serious leg injuries.
- they protected the bike, which would have suffered much more damage without the motobags
- they are only slightly scratched and the Inner board is a bit deformed.
- we were able to get back on the road immediately with 100% functional and still waterproof cases without any repair of the cases and without delay.
In short, if we were not yet convinced by the motobags, this unfortunate experience is really the ultimate argument for your product! Thank you for the security you provide!
We are so glad we ordered a pair for each of our bikes!
Len W.
Great product good build quality. Look good on the bike. Only minor low points. Fiddlely to fit with no instructions and delivery time is quite extensive, but worth the wait. Looking forward to getting the quick release system.

Just fitted the LR 31 /38 Motobags on to my 3AJ Ténéré. Easy install onto Hepco and Becker racks.
Great quality plenty of useable space.. and the little bag of goodies is a nice touch.
Very happy with my purchase .. I’m now ready to travel .
Paul H.
The bags are exactly as advertised. I have not been on a trip yet but I am looking forward to the first one. Mounting was fairly easy, even solo. Hard to find good instructions for mounting. You tube video was dark and not very helpful. The quick release that is coming out will be a big plus. Shipping was messed up but Lone Rider made good on the mistake.
Matthew J.
Just got them mounted. Look great! I definitely did not expect the build quality and materials. Only so much can be related through a video. If you're on the fence, pull the trigger.
Worth every dime.
I Plan on taking a long ride in the next week or so to do some camping and will be putting the bags through their paces.

Las maletas semirrígidas son para mi la mejor opción. Gran capacidad, waterproof y muy ligeras. Ademas se les pueden adaptar cantidad de accesorios gracias a su sistema Molle system. Realmente sensacionales. 100% recomendables

Es sin duda la mejor maleta que he tenido hasta ahora. Muy practica. Las maletas semirrígidas son una magnífica elección, buena capacidad, Waterproof y además pesan muy poco. Son geniales

Purchased to replace the BMW boxes for a mainly offroad roadtrip in Morocco, I am totally satisfied. In addition, the bags come with everything you need, nothing else. So I also have the 48L overlander and two 6L minibags. Great products!

I will write a review the moment I’m going to put them on in about 2 to 3 months i’m leaving in Canada and the weather here it’s pretty cold -40 Celsius with the windchill
So I will give you a review just give me some time please
James B.
I have a year under my belt with adventure riding and decided to get serious. When I upgraded to a newer model bike, I decided on the semi-ridged style panniers from Lone Rider. I am not a full time off road rider and I believe this system hits the mark.
I was quite impressed when I started unpacking . The thought that went into giving everything you need to install including some extra parts just in case. The swag was a nice touch.
The final thing I want to say is how the Lone Rider engineers are transparent with development of new products. Facebook, YouTube, and social boards. They ask for feedback and walk you through all the work they have been putting in on a product before it gets released.
Thank you Lone Rider

Overall I love the lone rider bags and would highly recommend them. Ordering and customer service (except phone, which was useless) was great via email. Installation was not easy and not as straight forward as I have hoped. I have the BMW F850GSA which comes with the BMW rack. According to Lonerider the bags should just bolt on. Well, for the left side (non exhaust side) that did work, for the right side (exhaust side) it was impossible to do so without the taking the rack off the bike. In general I think it should be recommended to disassemble the rack from the bike to mount the cases. Also on the exhaust side the BMW rack comes with welded on receiver plates which are needed for the BMW Al cases. The Lonerider mounting slots and bracket did not allow for a good way to mount the bag in the right spot and orientation. I ended up cutting and grinding off the upper front receiver plate, once done the bag mounted perfect.
Hemanth P.
This is my second set of Motobags! products are terrific...but their customer services and delivery of products leaves a lot to be desired. They seem to need to improve their logistics and order management! Took over 4 weeks to get my order and that too incomplete.
Enio B.
I love these Motobags—really high quality. You can see that they made this to last. The 2 changes that I hope to see in the near future is the Quick release system and a more straightforward mechanism to close the bags. The whole in the metal lock is to narrow. Very difficult to close the bag. But they are really really good looking. I recommend it.
Love from Portugal.
Sylvain S.
Je viens juste d'installer les motobags, et je vais attendre de les tester en voyage avant de donner un avis, mais ce n'est que du bonheur ces valises. Elles sont spacieuses et on ressent tout de suite la qualité de l'hypalon et des fermetures. Ce sont vraiment des valises faites pour les baroudeurs.
Je recommande ces motobags, c'est garantie à vie.

Was soll ich sagen? Für mich die perfekte Gepäcklösung! Platz ohne ende, wasserdicht, robust und flexibel. Ich baue die Taschen gar nicht mehr ab. Bin super

When I was searching for the panniers to put on my Yamaha Niken, I came across the Lone Rider and watched the story behind how the bag was designed and fell in love with the product. Unfortunately, given that the Niken is a very niche motorcycle, I didn't think that they would fit. With the excellent customer service in Anna and Andrew of Lone Rider, they confirmed that with slight modifications to the side racks, that the panniers would possibly fit. And they did!
Functions and features of the Lone Rider MotoBags are excellent, easy to assemble and most importantly for me, easy to take care of. Added bonus to that: they fit the Yamaha Niken beautifully. Very proud owner :)
Mark M.
Great customer service and amazing product- better than expected, previous bikes I owned had the hard case BMW panniers and this one is exactly what I needed, actually accidentally dropped bike while moving it- fell on case and no damage ! Couldn’t have said that if I had a hard case - thanks again y’all
Thomas G.
Just put them on yesterday... Not as hard to put on as I had anticipated. It took a bit to understand the strapping. Used them for the first time today. I got the 38/31L - they were excellent and carried a lot of stuff. Enjoyable being able to haul stuff on the bike.
Eric B.
J'en suis super content.
Acheté en 31+38 L sur une GSA avec l'objectif d'avoir des valises souples pour ne pas blesser ma femme en cas de chute, tout en pouvant les fermer à clé avec un cadenas et avec une certaine capacité d'emport de bagages.
Objectif atteint; Elles sont parfaitement étanches (testées 800 km d'affilés sous la pluie) et pratiques à utiliser.
Lorsque je ne suis pas en road trip, je les laissent repliées sur la moto pour être plus fluide dans la circulation, tout en ayant à tout moment la possibilité de les rouvrir pour emporter qq chose de lourd ou de gros si nécessaire.
Enfin, cerise sur le gateau, je les trouve belles et allant parfaitement avec la moto. A acheter sans aucune hésitation. Elles combinent les avantages du souple et du rigide sans leurs inconvénients..
Eric
Nudhi P.
Per your suggestion and with an addition of a bracing bracket to keep the quick release mechanism working, I was successful in installing the Motobags on my Yamaha Niken. Really goes well with the look of the 38L panniers, to me just the right proportions.
Thank you!
Simon
I ordered the Motobags when they first came out and I love them. They take a bit of getting used to, packing etc. This photo was when we did our trip to Northern Western Spain and Portugal Duoro Valley and the Silver coast, great scenery and riding. On the way back in the mountains I had a low speed silly fall and the bike rolled over. The Motobags protected the back end of the bike when it rolled no damage at the back at all. I still needed a few new bits at the front when I got home from BMW insurance. After I recovered from broken collar bone and ribs I had a good look at the bags and they hardly had a scratch on them. The inserts were a bit out of shape but that was easily sorted, my BMW top box was mangled, hence my move now to replace all the Vario paniers.
Thanks
Simon

Per Christian S.
Got the bags this summer. Done 8000 km with them so far. All kind of weather, and mainly dirt roads.
Great bags in all possible ways. Assembly first time not a problem. I like the way they collaps/fold while empty. But when I dont need them for a while, I just unscrew/detatch the whole rack from the bike. (GSA becoming a "naked bike, LOL) 6 bolts. Done in less than 10 minutes.
I gave them 4 stars. The only reason for that, to be 100% honest, is the weight. I think they are a bit to heavy (not heavier) compared to my Touratech aluminum panniers.
Besides that: Just an amazing product.
All the best. PC from Norway.
Keep up the good work.

James K.
I have both the 31L and 38L installed on a KTM 790 Adventure S, very good quality, all mounting hardware was included along with spare hardware. The only issue was a delay in shipping from USA to Canada though Lone Rider was responsive and corrected the issues with delivery.

Fantásticas maletas de lona..... Viaje de 5000km por España y Portugal por carretera y algo de off. Se ha caído alguna vez la moto y las maletas sin inmutarse. Nos llovió mucho por Galicia y demostraron ser totalmente estancas.. Dejando las maletas, quitando todo lo de dentro y plegándolas he llegado a la conclusión que no molestan nada para mis salidas off road.... Muy satisfecho con el producto.

Great bags - internal lift out bag makes life easy at the end of the day. Good dust sealing. Would be good if the locking tab screws were assembled with thread lock in assembly as some screws fell out in transit so we had to pull everything apart and reassemble securely before use. Otherwise very happy with this system of bags.
