I have to figure out if I can get them here and perhaps take a look. The Great Basin looks like I'd have to choose between it and my GF's a**, and sorry, Giant Loop.

Hi, see link below:

The SCL is great,and I love the Motech Legend Gear. I did a cross Eu tour with these, no problem but for my next tip I am planning to get the larger and lockable Urban ABS from Motech.

But!!! ...if you are planning to tour two up, forget it.. passenger cannot reach the pegs when bags are attached unfortunatley.

Ouch. Really? Oh, no.
Is that just with the Motech gear, or do you mean any luggage will be in the way? I am absolutely planning on having a passenger.

Just look at the pictures Ive posted with the bags on.. they are a little more forward, and a little high. And keep that in mind that these are the smallest available bags (9L) from Motech. I cannot see how the passengers legs bend in order to reach the pegs, the bags will be in the way...

I have contacted Hepco & Becker, perhaps they can clarify.

My Fehling rack is from Germany. Small rack with lip, very European. Doesn't hold much. I just carry my rain gear on it when there is a threat of rain.

Reply from Hepco & Becker: Their hard cases should fit just fine, and pillion is no problem (he inserted a caveat about the size of my companion, though). So I'll be getting a full Xplorer kit. Thanks for all your input, people!

They tell you : no fatties !

Below is mine with a HONDA factory Rack, 1 key - Top case and also a dual mailman sachel.
All are easily removable.
Picture was taken on way to the 2019 WV rally last September.

Looks good!

Ferret, how do you like the quality of the Fehling? Thinking of one for my Bonneville, as it would incorporate Givi mounting points.

Here's a pic of my Givi rack and Cortech bags. For the life of me, I can't locate the "Attachment" tab to include a pic.
