KTM 690 LUGGAGE ADVICE

[Harty]

Kriega overlander all day long. Fabulous gear.

Mike, can you measure your 15l pack please. Kriega site states 370x240x170....can't believe this is 15l capacity.

If that's the case it seems pretty small. One pack would just get my tent in. And I have a small Coleman aviorx2 tent.

Some more detailed info here Mike http://advrider.com/forums/showpost.php ... ostcount=6

From reading this and doing a bit of research, I am going to go up to Adventure Spec and have a look at the G/L Coyote and the Kriega Adv Overlander 30 ( with the option of an extra bag fitted in the middle). These both work out at about the same price, the Kriega is looking the favorite at the moment as it is waterproof. Why would you make an adventure bike luggage system that is not waterproof?

When I am up there Mike I'll ask if they have dining chairs that fold down:)

Cheers Stu.

Agree stu, I was starting to favour kriega but size looks a bit tight. Same as you, I'll pack my gear and go and view the options. Whatever gets my gear in is the one for me. I liked the idea of kriega with space in the middle for other options, eg tent.

Jim (Timcat) uses the Ortleib bags on his 690, he has the racks fitted though. Don't know if Ortlieb do a rackless set up. Is your bike sorted out now John?
