Panniers
« on: July 20, 2025, 23:03:07 »
Hi All,

I have Vstrom 1050 xt with Suzuki Panniers fitted, does anyone know if you can get rubber pads to protect the lids if strapping things on the top. I have looked but can't see any that might fit.

Any thoughts welcome.
Thanks

I haven’t got panniers fitted to my 1050XT.

However, when I had my Honda CBF1000F with full luggage, I got a roll of decent neoprene and used that.

I was able to cut it to size to protect all the vulnerable areas. It worked well for me, stuck well and was easy to replace when bits started to look a bit tatty.👍

Unless you've got something sorted, what about something like this ......

That's exactly what I used and it works.  :text-goodpost: :thumb:
