Posted October 14, 20195 yr Hi all, Does anyone have any luggage fitted to their T7 and what do you like? I'm interested in a top box initially and have looked at the official Yamaha option, but also H&B and SW-Motech. I must admit, I like the look of the SW-Motech and the top rack looks less intrusive than the Yamaha one, plus it's >£200 cheaper for the whole set-up. offtheroad.de have some great options OFF-THE-ROAD | SW-Motech TRAX ADV Top Case System Yamaha Tenere 700 | Online Webshop SW-Motech TRAX ADV Top Case System Yamaha Tenere 700 - TRAX ADV top case system Yamaha Tenere 700 This complete solution contains everything required for installing a top case: TRAX ADV top case, bike Any advice gratefully received. Rich
October 16, 20195 yr Author Anyone able to comment here at all please? I'm guessing someone must have luggage. Cheers Rich
October 16, 20195 yr The advantage of the official Yamaha Topcase-rack (made by Givi) is, that any Givi or Kappa Monokey topcase will fit on the rack without the need of any additional adapter plate. So if you do not choose the quite expensive Yamaha topcase (made by Givi...) you have a relatively wide choice of cheaper alternatives and size options. IMO the official Yamaha Topcase-rack is the most versatile options and if you decide lateron to use panniers you have the option to add the panniers side racks... Regarding the look this is a matter of taste: you either like it or not ;-) Peter

October 22, 20195 yr Community Expert I bought a Giant Loop for my Tenere. Haven't fitted it yet because I don't have a rear rack. And the winter is coming to Finland. I have had both, hard and soft luggage, before. Now wen't for the soft one, because I don't want to ruin the beautiful lines and shape of the bike by adding hard luggage cases and pannier racks to it.

The Giant Loop do look great. I've looked at them. If you could share any pictures fitted to the bike once you have it, that would be brilliant. Cheers Rich

Cheers Rich Yes I will but it may take some time as I have put the bike to hibernation sleep and probably won't be visiting it anytime soon.

October 27, 20195 yr Popular Post We've just got our Tenere in the shop, so slung a set of Enduristan Blizzards on it. These are the Large (total 24Ltr), but the XLarge (total 34Ltr) still have no clearance issue with the exhaust: Enduristan - Blizzard Saddlebags - select size If you're riding offroad, you don't carry the same stuff as you would on a pure road trip, right? That’s why Enduristan chose a modular approach for the Blizzard Saddle Bags.
October 28, 20195 yr Popular Post Hi, got this SW Motech seat bag after seeing one on another forum, fits well on the four existing mounting points, 26 litre expanding to 35 I think. by the way I’m in Shepshed if you want to have a look. Edited October 28, 20195 yr by ChrisH
October 28, 20195 yr Author That looks great I must say, without the top heaviness of a rear top box/rack. Did if just fit straight on and where did you buy it, if you don't mind me asking? Shepshed - literally 10 mins from me. Would be great to have a look. Feel free to message me direct. I can share the things I've done to mine if you're interested. Cheers Rich Edited October 28, 20195 yr by Rich TT

November 5, 20195 yr Looking at available options ... The Yamaha rear carrier rack weight=6.3kg ... (that is heavy I would think and those handles are useless) So I am still waiting for proper alternatives. (Probably OutbackMotortek can supply something decent.) Then I need to figure out what is needed to carry stuff, and most of the time I think that a hard case is more practical (when not on the trails). The Yamaha top box volume=42L ... max load=10kg ... weight=5kg Givi Outback volume=58L ... max load=10kg ... weight=6.2kg Still shopping around for proper soft cases and most require rear carrier, so I might as well have one.
November 5, 20195 yr I really like the Blizzard Saddle Bags - they will be hanging on my bike. cheers -Bob
November 6, 20195 yr I love the look of those Enduristan bags. I like the way they roll up and seal at the top opening. You could throw one of their Typhoon bags across the top of the two Blizards for a lot more space too. I have an old bag (like the typhoon) I used when kayaking that closes the same way and it sure is waterproof!
November 8, 20195 yr If you`d like to watch all the news and updates on Luggage options soft and hard especially for the ténéré 700 showed on the EICMA in Milano this November from Enduristan, Givi, SM-Motech, Touratech etc. goto: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBqXwzvX-n4GCgNaj_QoqkQ Interesting for me is that Givi's own solution is different from the one they build for and is sold by Yamaha...

Pete Excellent link, thanks mate, lots to look at there. How big is that givi rack? It's HUGE! I think I could fit a fold out camper on that and then sleep on the back of the bike. :) Edited November 9, 20195 yr by shaneygrog
December 9, 20195 yr Does anyone know if the original Yamaha top case support is it compatible with the rear side carrierr sw motech? someone assembled this two differente part on your T7?
December 9, 20195 yr Look at Pamir travel system, its here on Portugal. Seems to be a nice quality, can you opinate abaut? Thanks Edited April 13, 20214 yr by Lupan
