2 ans maintenant que j’utilise les motobags. Super content, très bonne valise, étanche et robuste. Elles n’ont pas bougé. J’ai juste eu un problème avec le cadenas au bout de 8 mois, je les ai contacté et ils m’en ont renvoyé un de suite. Au top. Je suis fan de lonerider. Merci à vous.

Got about 15k miles on these bags. From Alaska to Baja, they are well thought out & durable. +1 for LR bags.

super sacoche. j'aurais du les acheter depuis longtemps tellement elle sont parfaite.

Great bags made with Great Quality, I plan to get many years of good use out of them.
Keep up the Great Work!

Great product love the look and fitment on my 2023 KTM SAS 1290

Very versatile bags, rugged, flexible and have those fantastic Molle patches where a lot of stuff can be attached to. The bags are waterproof by them self, but they come with an 100% waterproof inner bag. Perfect snug fit for the GS right out the box. Come with a lot of stuff and goodies to remove the backplate and do basic maintenance. All the lettering is reflective material but added some extra attached to the molle system and it looks awsome!!

Great bags. Kept my belongings safe and dry on many multi day adventures.
Customer service is top notch as well.

These cases are rugged and ideal for adventure riding. They were easy to install and look great.

Rode Baja SD to Cabo & back last month. Had a minor issue that I wasn't sure if it'd be covered. LR took quick care of it & I'm not easily impressed, I am with LR. Bravo!

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing lonerider semi hard bags, and it left a lasting impression. The setup and installation were remarkably straightforward, showcasing its user-friendly design. The product's rugged construction not only adds a sense of toughness but also complements the overall aesthetic, making it the perfect addition to any bike. It undeniably completes the look, and its durability ensures a long-lasting, high-quality investment. Highly recommended for those seeking both functionality and style for their ride.

The bags are simply great, even after many years they are still waterproof.
Also the mud fight this year at the elephant meeting in the Bavarian Forest.
Simply great

Shape is very nice.
Quality is good.
But if you have equipped side luggage rack by Touratech, then you need to adjust your left bag.

The bag is/and has all that one need for travel , i didn’t need to do any adjusment or modification , it fits perfectly well on my motorcycle (BMW r1250gs), and looks very pretty , seems and feel more comfortable that my aluminium cases , the unique inconvenient that i see is a little more effort or work to close or open . Oh! I Almost forget one of the Best thing of the bag that’s than when you hit it you feel soft and don’t hurts as the aluminium

Love the Moto bags. Exactly what I needed. I have not taken them on the road yet for long trip. But I have taken them for a test ride in the rain. And they work great. Thanks. Dale. Washington State.

"Amazing bags!! These are absolutely bulletproof and strong. I snagged them during the Christmas holiday season sale, and they've exceeded my expectations. They're perfect for heavy-duty use, and I'm really excited to take them on a longer trip. Their durability and quality really are incredible making them a fantastic choice for anyone looking for reliable luggage”

Fits fine, lots of bits to store when not expanded and in use.

Love the bags and the customer service. They look great, have a lot of storage and stay completely dry in the wet weather.
Good customer service is very difficult to come by these days. I can’t say enough for their great customer service.

Rode it through hot sun, sand ,silt and heavy rain. My belongings remain dry and bags endured everything. Goid worm on making good quality products

Love the Moto bags. Will be going on long trip cross country. In the spring. But I have taken them out for test rides in the rain and they work great! Great bags!
Stephen A.
I received my 2 semi rigid moto bags before Christmas and it was like Santa arrived early.
As I have a BMW 1250 adventure trophy edition they were setup to go right on without any issues ( a little tight to begin with but after a few times of taking them on and off it became a lot easier)
Every thing has been thoroughly thought of in the making of these bags right to the last detail even down to the ratchet spanner that’s provided which is top quality in its own right
I’m so overwhelmed by the quality of these bags and intend to purchase an overlander in the near future
So just to wrap it up I would totally recommend these motobags to anyone so keep up the good work and looking forward to what is coming up in the future so happy new year to everyone and keep on biking
David D.
Bought a set for my R1250GS on Black Friday. Unfortunately, that means that here in Canada the riding season is essentially over so I haven’t used them yet on the road. However, the fit and finish is really nice. Along with the included accessories I’m really impressed and very happy with my purchase!
Ralph D.
The 38L as well as the 31L are made of tuff, tuff, tuff material! Great looks, easy to self install. Quality built to last for many years of adventures. The Tools and inner liners that came with the Moto Bags are also top notch. These panniers are the real deal and worth the money!

A little adjustment and it fits well. Great for longer trips.

Overbuilt construction. Absolutely the best bags that can be purchased to date.

Lone Rider Motobags are second to none. The build quality and attention to detail will ensure these bags will endure years of riding adventures.
Timothy U.
Nice bag but I don't like the way the top closes. Your forced to place the top rolls in a aluminum assembly before you can close it. There is a non adjustable strap with a large plastic connecting buckle to secure each end of the tops opening. This buckle interferes with this clumsy latching system and as you ride, it wedges into the space where the rolls go. This jams the locking pin and really takes some doing to get it open.
I've just decided to close this strap across the top. As Lone Rider says, "The wrong way". It makes my life much easier.
Everything else is top quality. Fit and finish are very good.
Chris E.
I find the moto bags to be high quality and like that they lock to the bike. They are a little on the heavy side but guess they need to be, to be strong and durable

This bag is amazing.

These bags are amazing aesthetically and quality wise. Best purchase I've made for my bike
Peter D.
After days of researching Hard and Soft Pannier options I think LR was the perfect choice.
The Bags arrived quickly!
The required modification to fit my Racks was reasonable. The Parts and Tools supplied were high quality. The supplied directions for the mod's were difficult to follow, so your YouTube video was really helpful.
I would suggest that a Tamper Proof Bit be included in future tools that you supply. That Bit would have made the entire mod move from several hours to a single houre per bag.
The bags fit well and look excellent!
Thanks again for a fine product

Unfortunately I don't enjoy the lofty status of the many YouTubers out there who have the luxury of benchmarking their luggage against other offerings, but I can at least claim impartiality with my review. I do a feel a little "corporate" as I also use the Overlander bag (terrific) and the LR ADV tent (also, terrific).
Overall - very happy with the panniers. The build quality is excellent and after a 4000k break in ride in pretty diverse weather, I can vouch for their dust and water proof claim.
Subjectively, the bags "felt" heavier than what I expected. Not a criticism, but I think I underestimated the nett weight of these bags. I also did a fair bit of fine tuning of the mounts to get them to fit my racking system (2018 GS) - that's definitely NOT a criticism; the ability to move brackets and bumpers around to get a perfect mount was a plus (I only needed to drill one hole, even with all of the provisioned slides and fixture options).
The locking catch plates on the roll tops took a little getting used to but I found that some mutton grease around the locating pin aided the process.
On the subject of the locks, the padlocks are a throwaway item. Nice to get. Rubbish to use. Do yourself a favour and invest in a better quality lock!
I chose to do away with the red liner bags and instead ran with a series of individual dry bags as I found that easier to manage, but that is definitely a personal choice. Oh, and the irony of the red liners is that they "make finding items in the bag easier", except if you use the LR pack sacks which are of course, also red!
Finally, and I think this may have been mentioned from a few other reviewers, in hindsight I would run with a slightly smaller pannier option. Not too sure what the literage reduction would be, but 25mm off the widths of both bags would pull some of the heft out of the overall width and still leave plenty of carrying capacity, particularly with such an array of molle addons available.
Adam H.
Incredibly tough and versatile bags. Super happy I bought them. Took a spill on some really rocky terrain and they didn't even scuff. I don't even use my aluminum bags anymore.
Herb B.
Switching from mosko to moto bags. I Like the rigidity and larger size of.the moto bags, closure is fine.
I Mounted on my out back mototech racks. I found the mounting system to be very finicky/darn near impossible to get adjusted perfectly, the mosko mounting plate is much better and not finicky to instal or use. Have limited use at.this time but I do like the look of moto bags better than the outback bags.
SOWMYA K.
The bags are impressively robust, showcasing exceptional strength and high-quality craftsmanship. I'm thoroughly pleased with the product thus far, especially appreciating the swift replacement of the initial defective bag. Attaching them to my original pannier rods was a breeze. The only minor concern is the gradual fading of the locks' color. Overall, very satisfied.
Ruben C.
Excellent quality and looks incredible on any bike.
They offer security for those who want to venture out more and allow you to store more accessories
Daniel G.
Super proud to have these bags on my bike. Very impressed with the quality.
Marc R.
I like the product. It's very well made. I wish there was a slighly smaller option on the bags. But the build quality is top notch.
Kurtis K.
The bag sticks out away from the bike on the right side if you are facing the bike from the rear. I was forced to travel between lanes on a Mexican freeway for over an hour while all traffic was at a standstill. A large truck bumper was raw metal with ragged edge, Caught the bag and tore it and bent the frame for the bag. I had no such issues with the left side while Lane splitting. BTW traffic was stopped for 7 hours. I was able to catch an alternately route on my GPS.

使い勝手も良くデザインもカッコいいのでとても気に入ってます。
その他はアルミパニアを2個潰した自分にとっては、Loneriderのソフトパニアは柔軟性がありながら強度もあるのでとても重宝しています。
Cedric P.
Super produit de bonne qualité je le recommande
Jonathan B.
I have only used these panniers for one trip (250 miles) so far, but they performed great. Highly recommended.
Darren P.
The use and packing of this bag is great loved. However the fitment of this as per what is written on your website is very subpar. Your website in a number of places says out of the box no adjustment they fit a GSA1250 and I'm sorry they do not. I was sent a second backing plate and it was the same. In the end I had to reposition the top locking bracket into a non GSA location. I had to re drill and locate the back and forth plastic supports and also re-position the lower locating plastic mounts for it to fit and have no movement. In the end I think you do have a problem with the bracket and the information you provide. I have a friend that has had the same problem.
James G.
Firstly they looked amazing!
They fit to the bike very easily and are nice and waterproof.
Only minor point is fixing the looking plates together for the padlock.
Highly recommend them.
Diego T.
Very nice bags, the only bad thing from me is I did spend couples of hours trying to fit them on my Triumph Tiger 900, it would be much better if they come ready to go.
hirotaka m.
I bought a 31+38 moto bag for my R1250GSA and installed it and drove at high speeds without any problems. Even when I ran in the rain, the items inside didn't get wet and the storage capacity was perfect. , and the design is cool, so I have recommended this product to my friends.
Johanne C.
Very good guarantee. I have thé bad fir 2 years and travelled 5 months and use thé bacs everyday. One day the strap rip, I send picture of the rip and 3 days later I received a new bag. Also a plastic lock broke and 2 days later I received a new one. No worries there products are very strong and if a badluck happen they replace immediately.
John S.
Best bags on the market. Modular, tough, good looking, spacious. What else could you want? Highly recommend!

The Lone Rider has a cool design and is unique, so I made the right decision to purchase it!
I would like to continue to increase the number of Lone Rider items.

Product quality is outstanding.

I’ve never had panniers before and wanted to test them for a while before reviewing. I’ve had them on the bike for over 6k miles. From MN, rode down through TN and back. A short run up to cabin country and then a longer 2 week trip out to SF in August that took me through the Dakotas, Montana, Nevada up through Oregon, Northern Idaho and back home. 101 degrees to 35, a few hrs of rain rides and several days of comfy 72 degrees. There is no such thing as a perfect motorbike and guessing no perfect luggage but my GSA and these LR panniers are pretty darn close. The only troubles I had with the bags were with the offset backplate involved with/in shipping and Lone Rider responded relatively quick and sent out a new offset mount quickly and resolved that. My only troubles during the summer trips was with the locks that accompany the bags. They look good and feel fair quality but both failed on my short run up north. One would not unlock and the other would not lock or reset. Both on the same day. Good timing in that way. Bolt cutter for one and the other set aside. First world problem as they say and possibly operator error, no matter, locks are one of the few things whose price hasn’t changed much. This didn’t take away from my opinion of the bags or the company. It’s a lock. These bags seem tough, definitely water proof, found that out following Hurricane Hillary s remnants up the coast. Several areas to expand with connection points and adjustable internally. Very little wind drag noticed in the mountain areas or the plains. Perfect bag physically and visually for the GSA. Only time will tell the resiliency of the material but from what I’ve seen, they should withstand many years.
6000 miles and still happy

I just added a set of saddle bags to my 23 BMW R1250GSA and the fit and finish is impressive. They take a little bit of adjustment which is easy. Look like a factory bag and provide tons of flexibility.
Emilian D.
These bags are amazing!!! Love them all!!!
Sebastian P.
More than happy. The bags arrived no problem to Colombia. They fitted as expected right from the box.
So far only one trip using them. We had some rain, mud, some gravel roads and they hold up really good.
No complains. Just want to use them more!
Michael Rotterdam
After spending 4 weeks now in Norway with my LoneRider gear, I really need to say that it worked out perfectly and it fulfilled all my needs!
jim k.
I'm happy i chose these soft bags. My bike has already been on it's side with no damage to the bags. I love the locking option. I feel secure and don't wooy when I'm in the gym that someone can easily take my gear
Mike B.
Just got back from a 4000km trip with my new bags and I couldn't be happier. They performed well in rain, dirt, heat and a couple of drops. Easy packing, durable and good looking. What else could you want?
Olivier S.
Just back from a 2.700 km roadtrip in the Alps in camping mode on my roadster BMW R1250R fitted with one MotorBag and an Overlander. Extremely happy with them, great quality and huge storage space. All my stuff was easily accessible and very well protected.
Terry T.
Have only limited use of the bags but really like the bags so far. Fit right on to my GSA 1200 racks with no alterations or adjustment needed. Having a hard time latching and unlatching the metal clasps that close the bags. Room for improvement.
Chris B.
I just returned from a three week trip to the arctic using lone rider gear - 31 &38 litre side bags, 6 l small bag, and 30 l over lander bag - see separate review. The gear withstood the conditions well. Through torrential downpours, caked mud, dust, and about 3000ks of oftentimes rough gravel, they came back strong. Never leaked, solid throughout. After a badly sprained ankle on a previous trip where my foot got caught under hard panniers, I went for these still wanting structure to the bags but the ability to give a little if I got caught dragging my foot backwards under the bags again. I think that these are the best if not only option for that and I was really happy knowing the were on the bike. They never shifted a mm and we could cruise at 130 on the highway without problem or any sense that these were less stable than a solid bag as well. Installing them takes a bit of time so be prepared for this. Also, I started out trying to install them on a Givi Outback frame which with some filing back of the spacers on the locking clamps did work, but I ended up changing the frame to the more solid and better suited KTM stock frame which is compatible with touratech bags. This worked much better, but if you find yourself in a similar situation, just buy the touratech frame. It is better spaced to fit with these bags. Getting in and out of these bags takes a bit more effort than the click of a hard box, but you get quicker with this and they soften a bit so that the flaps tuck under easier after a while. They drew a lot of attention on the trip so we’re a good conversation piece with other riders. Overall, I am very happy with the bags. If you are looking for the combo of hard case structure and soft bag safety, and, I anticipate durability, these are absolutely the way to go.
Seungkwon K.
Good. Easy install, tough & soft material, nice design.
It was the best choice for my 1250gs!
Dan K.
LR’s support has been fantastic BTW…you folks are doing it right!
Here are some pics of the abuse the LR bags received while we rode the NEBDR….
They did not come thru unscathed, however they did amazingly well given what we dragged them thru!
Miguel C.
Lone Rider the best for off road and long trips
Eugene F.
Both panniers are great, was a minor issue with one strap which was cracked during transit and LoneRider customer care we’re first class & sent me out a new strap immediately…
V. D.
Very functional product.
What is even more important for me, aftersale support is impeccable.
Joe K.
Fabulous kit. If you're thinking about buying them, do it!
I'm super happy with my purchase and already sold my friend on them. Plus, they are the only soft luggage that is fully lockable.
Gonzalo A.
I am 100% happy
Jean T.
Incroyable produit.
Bien fini, beau, pratique.
10/10!
Kenneth R.
The bags worked out great for our last trip! They were strong enough to support Herbie using them to put his front paws on without sagging out.
My only gripe is the overall weight. Very nice bags and very tough! They are super easy to strap other gear onto in many different ways. No more hard cases for our off road adventures!
ZHANG W.
good products! can't wait to show these to my friends now!
Mike B.
Amazing bags and extremely durable. Best bags I have had yet.
Shawn B.
Easy to install, love the fact I can lock them up and look good on the bike.
JAIR ALEJANDRO P.
Love them, great quality, easy to install and looks amazing, just one concern the big straps got fabrics off on the first ride, i am worry they will be getting off, and the bad thing are the padlocks way under the quality off the bags one of mine got stuck before use it, i have to replace them for a better ones, i have seen the old ones they look better build for the bags. im looking forward for the padlock v3
Travis D.
Installation was a pain, having to remove all the screws just move one one thing.
arthur p.
I should have just purchased these panniers when I bought my 22' GSA. They are so much more forgiving than the aluminum panniers and they give a little so you can fit stuff better. I originally bought my bike with the aluminum luggage set..... And, unfortunately I beat the crap out of them on some off roads adventures. They got bent up and deformed some; didn't close right anymore. Lone Rider panniers are the way to go...
John T.
Can’t say enough good about the bags! I’m a customer for life!
Richard B.
Bagagerie montée sur supports Givi Trekker Outback. J'ai dû légèrement limer les encrages des supports valise Givi pour que le système de fermeture soit fonctionnel. Mais une fois monté, c'est le bonheur! Je ne reviendrai plus aux valises rigides. Le top!
Sander V.
De zijtassen zijn zeer ruim en van superieur niveau. De inbegrepen waterdichte binnentassen zijn van een onmiskenbare kwaliteit en superhandig om te reizen. Vervangt de ALU bak op vlak van veiligheid en gebruiksgemak en ziet er op de fiets voor de meerwaardezoeker nog eens goed uit ook Geen kat in een zak :)

Motobags, Minibags, Tailpack et overlander 48 installés en avril, déjà 2 voyages et l'ensemble est juste génial. L'installation des motobags sur ma Tiger 1200 Rally explorer 2022 s'est faite super facilement avec les supports Triumph d'origine. Lors d'un stage Offroad, les moto bags ont parfaitement résisté malgré les chutes et avec les minibags, ils forment un bel ensemble de protection supplémentaire. La capacité d'emport avec 38 et 31 L plus les minibags pour tout le materiel de secours et mécanique est parfaite. Définitivement adopté avec bonheur.
Valery D.
I’ve been using them for months now, and yes they look stunning but over all, they are really functional and well engineered. You do need a bit of practice to get them open and closed but it works from day one and gets faster and faster with time. In combination with the packing sleeves in the dry days and with the addition of the supplied inner bags in the rainy days, all I need fits in those two bags (put the heavy stuff first so the gravity center stay low). If there is one drawback, it in the security aspects if you compare them to solid cases (lockers can be a pain to install sometimes) but let’s be honest, when loaded, no one leaves his motorbike alone right ?! Go get some !
Greg S.
Nearly a full day to remove rigid backings and adjust mount locations to the bike’s factory rack positioning, including grinding away the infamous BMW weld surplus so that the bags’ locking grips can seat.
Don’t expect an immediate out-of-box fit to 2023 GSA 1250 factory racks (my experience) but allow for the time and effort to adjust everything and re-assemble the bags …. The end result is easy on / easy off perfect fit and no worries, exactly as you wanted. Enjoy!
Greg S.
Half a day rejigging the mount locations on the backing plate. Then had to grind the infamous BMW weld blob down. After that, snaps in place and removes in a breeze.
Don’t expect less work when brand new out of the box, but be confident that the initial effort is worthwhile.
Same for the 31 L other side bag.
Ales K.
A little stiff in the beginnen, but it gets softer after some time. Quality is excellent, looks great and very flexible with it's Molle system to add more bags or accessories.
Recommend for long-distance travellers.
Stephane 34 G.
Absolutely nice ! 31+38 L Motobags installed on my Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer allow me a large storage capability for my wife and I but fit well and secure my bike.
Used this 3 days week end riding with 1 rainy day but absolutely no problem for all our stuffs (Clothes and video equipment). I used to keep it for a daily off-road round with light safety equipments inside and to protect bike too and with TailPack instead of Topaze and minbags. Last but not least look is fantastic when all units are installed together.
ian p.
Well this was my first fall. My mate with hard panniers also fell twenty yards further along, both of the bikes landed on our legs, i came out without a problem, Robbo on the other hand came out with a broken ankle, hard pannier being the culprit. The Lone Rider pannier did exactly what it was designed to do and sprisingly in just pushed back into place, yes i did do some very minor damage, i need to replace the corner protection rubber..wow. Thank you so much guys you saved my ankle..So who ever is reading this which one will you buy? be sensible buy Lone Rider.
luis R.
product is very sturdy and good looking. plenty of storage capacity for all travel gear/gadgets.
Hector D.
The best product
Marijn v.
I have lot's of great Lone Rider bags on my bike. I have been using them now for a 12K mileage, and they absolutely do what they promise! Once I had to let the bike fall over, no damage at all to the bike or the bags whatsoever. I had one issue with one of the motobags, but LoneRider Support fixed this issue for me in a very professional way. I was honestly impressed the way they took it seriously and resolved the issue quickly!
