Saddlebag Liners

[Burmashave]

While we're on the subject of saddlebag liners, I've found that they keep their shape better if you keep them stuffed when not using them. Most folks prolly won't care, but I'm a picky pod.

I tried putting my Arai Signet-X in a pannier with an empty liner inside. The pannier would not close. I suspected not so bought the external helmet lock when I bought the bike.

Do you have a picture of what it looks like installed on the bike? I've been curious to see where the helmet fits while having the bags on

Here are two pix, one showing the helmet locked in place, the other showing the helmet lock without helmet. HTH

Thank you for posting these two pics. Helped me a lot.

Anyone know if you can install two helmet locks? One for each side?

Helmet locks were standard equipment on my 08 ZX14 .My 2011 2012 and my 2015 ZX14R came without them! Cheap SOBs.

When I use panniers I'm usually happy to pack stuff directly into them but I know from previous experience that from time to time a set of bag liners would be useful. Result; I decided to buy a set Kawasaki saddlebag liners. I say "Kawasaki" but they're actually manufactured by Givi (or one of their Chinese suppliers) as the labels inside clearly reveal.

I had to think about this a bit because they seem quite expensive, but I have to say, now the money's gone and the bags are here I'm pleased with what I got. Bag liners seem nicely finished with Kawasaki logo, reflective trim, and double zip to open from center or either direction. Inside they're lined with a zip-up mesh divider and each bag comes with a shoulder strap.

Here they are:

KQR™ 28 Liter Hard Saddlebag Liner Set
Kawasaki Part # 100LUU-0004
MSRP US$139.95 for left and right liner set

Available from Bike Bandit for US$133.95 (free shipping)

I agree. Though I have not used the setup yet, they appear nicely done and will perform like set of suitcases sitting the house, waiting to be filled and slipped into the trunk.

I've used them. They work pretty well, seem fairly well made too. You can stuff them pretty full and still get the panniers closed. Makes going into/out of hotels really nice. I've had them on all my bikes, usually one of the first things I get.
