@@jimpiquette1375 I was thinking the same thing after posting this video. LOL But like I said, it's still a working progress. Much slimming down to do!
Whats on that games shelf I spy in the background? Nice video mister... I am looking into getting a bike, and part of the decision for which bike, is available luggage options, so that I can take it on some trips... If you ever want to go on a decently long trip... there's always a stop at a laundromat to wash clothes while you eat a meal, and there's always showers available at truckstops along the freeway... Ride safe....subbed...
From what I can tell, there is Viticulture, Gloomhaven, Agricola and Spirit Island. That's all I can tell anyways. I've moved since, so I have the games stored away for now. Thanks for stopping by! Thanks for the tips on truck stops and laundromat!!
Not really, you would have to get creative if you want to pack a backpacking tent. Like, separate the poles from the tent in order to get it to fit in these bags.
Thank you for this Video! It's a big help. I'm now decided to buy the Pro tail bag for i already have the Blaze saddle bags and the tank bag. Super Thanks!
I bought the Optimus Terra cook set because of an earlier video of yours. Absolutely love it! I use a pocket rocket deluxe for my stove. I ride a 2019 Vulcan S. I love your equipment videos. Can’t even tell you how many times I’ve watched them. Thanks!!!
How'd you like hammock camping, I have a warbonnet black bird. and love the hammock best way to camp and easy to carry in Saddlebags. Liked your video very helpful. where do you put your food and change of clothes?
Hi there. I love hammock camping way more than any other camping I've done. Even more than RV trailer camping. Once the setup is done properly, it's so warm on a Spring/Summer night with the stars right above is the most amazing experience ever. My change of clothes are in a small bag in the tail bag of the bike. Food is also on the top mesh pocket of the tail bag. This was only for one night so not much to pack. It's a working progress for next camping season.
Voto, You provided a VERY impressive breakdown of the excellent bags and thoughtful in depth details including weight, contents etc. Was not expecting such quality viewing. I had your same bike some years back and your rig looks amazing and the bags are perfect on it. Well balanced, great looking bit of kit. You have a good eye and seem very organized..you must be an engineer! LOL. Oh...well, there was the backward tail bag..but hey, no one's perfect ;-) Thanks for the vid. Sub'd.
LOL. Thank you so much!! I appreciate your kind words! Yes, I can be a bit detailed oriented, but surprisingly, I'm not an engineer. Although, that's not the first time someone has mentioned that to me. Have a good day and thanks for stopping by!
I put my foot/boot over the rider seat to get on the bike. No swinging my foot over the back for me. I would recommend them if you're don't mind soft bags. There is a little issue with the paint. I just put the tape that's provided in the kit when I take the bags on a trip. Otherwise, there decent bags.
do you offset the weight left to right on the saddle bags to account for the exhaust on one side? probably not much of an issue on a street triple though.
I hadn't thought of accounting for the weight of the exhaust. But so far, I haven't noticed a considerable difference in how the bike behaves. So far, it's been running well with this setup.
Awesome to hear! I just got back from a overnight camp with this new setup and it worked out great so far. I'll record my next outing to report how all this works. Thanks so much for the sub and I appreciate the comment!
Wow didn't know that the SW-Motech Blaze could fit all that stuff. Very informative, thanks. I have the R8 waistpack from Kriega. It comes with a tool-roll, check it out and the R8 can fit quite a lot. Maybe even your first aid/emergency kit. You won't notice that you carry the waistpack after a couple of miles. Could be a good alternative option if you don't want to carry the R25.
HOLY COW THIS VIDEO IS LITERALLY EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED AND NO OTHER VIDEO ON TH-cam HAS EXACTLY THIS INFO!!!!!!
Glad the video was helpful!! Was going to post this on your Instagram post, but hadn't got to it yet. And of course, you beat me to it! Lol
The tail bag is backwards
Yes it is! Thanks for pointing that out!
3 lights, 2 too many .

I wanna go camping with your group lol it just by watching this video im pumped
wow, those saddlebags are like a clown car...the stuff just keeps coming out!
😆, yes!
There seems like you have no clothes to change into. I think you had one pair of pants. Take out the hammock and add clothes.
Oh my goodness, I didn't pack any clothes becasue it was only one night as a tester. But next time, I'll think about leaving the hammock at home. 😆
Are the Saddlebags large enough to hold a backpacking tent?
Not really, you would have to get creative if you want to pack a backpacking tent. Like, separate the poles from the tent in order to get it to fit in these bags.
Looks great! looking forward to camping footage
Thanks! I'm looking forward to bringing you footage of camping.

Hello!, I guess im buyinh those sidebags, do you have your tent in them?, may we know which tent are you using?. Thanks!

How did you get on with these? I'm looking at the blaze bags, would you recommend them? Any issues with paint damage?

great vid, unbelievable amount of space in the paniers. thought someone was handing stuff up through a trap door. mega space
Lol, yeah, I wish! It's a lot of working stuffing these bags.

Thank you for the informative video. Love the look of that tail bag it has nice sharp lines to it. Be safe out there.
Thank you kindly!
Great job on review and the bike looks awesome, all decked out in baggage gear.
Thank you! I appreciate your kind words!
Comgrats, and enjoy !
Thank you!
New sub. Great vid. Looking to moto camp this year for the first time. Picked up SW bags too.
Awesome to hear! I just got back from a overnight camp with this new setup and it worked out great so far. I'll record my next outing to report how all this works. Thanks so much for the sub and I appreciate the comment!
@@VotoCycling great! And the bags look amazing on your bike.
Nice review man👍👍
