Soft luggage for Ktm 1190 adventure advice pls ?
I plan to ride to Thailand from the UK, the 1190 has acprovic exhaust fitted I have a top box already. I am looking for the best soft luggage that's not too wide as I like to filter. Has anyone had experience/recommendations of fitting/ buying panniers that are not too wide particularly on the exhaust side ?
Thanks for your help
Safe riding
Paul

Thanks for the advice when I look at the madagan luggage it needs a rack when you put a rack on and the luggage it seems to stick out a lot on the exhaust side which is what I'm trying to avoid.i need to find a shop in the UK (I am from Coventry ) were they have it in display on a bike.i have looked at giant loop as well.
Safe riding

Dry-bag panniers
We are looking at these 'dry-bag' style panniers and luggage rolls for the back seat, from Italy.
waterproof bag, waterproofstuff bags, Amphibious Dry Equipment Range, Amphibious waterproof bag, soft seat, Shop4bikers, Amphibious tank bag, Over-board bags, dry tubes, waterproof tank bags, waterproof panniers, Givi bags, Ortlieb, Traveldri,
Do not know how well they will fit your bike, but they do everything we need, and there is a supplier near Sheffield.
