I’ve bought a set of these to throw over the back part of the saddle - 

not tried them yet

@Rider5 , check out Lomo, you can kit your whole bike out for bugger all almost. I have a waterproof daysack, and some bags. I put my large 40 litre bag across the panniers ands seat and it has a full length roll down for access. They cost pennies and are as good as any “name” manufacturer for bags. They even do waterproof throw over panniers but they might not last as long as some others.

Welcome to the forum. Searching "Panniers" under Parts & Upgrades yielded this result. Lots of good information already posted there.

Giant Loop MotoTrekk soft bags w/Possibles Pouches & quick detachable Pannier Mounts for Soft Luggage + Nelson Rigg - Rigg Gear Hurricane SE4040 dry duffel bag is a great combo...full reviews on my blog via the links.

Look at the Adventure Spec Magadan panniers MK3, they are going for $349 for the panniers only. Get a couple of sea to summit lightweight dry bags (the ones adventure spec sells are overkill) but the panniers themselves are pretty water resistant- took 2 days of heavy rain to get them to leak without dry bags. They have all kinds of pouches and bottle holders that you can add as you go. Pretty rugged, I’ve got the MK2 version and like them a bunch but would love to have the MK3’s.

Where are you based mate? Some millitary surplus shops might have ten liter pouches that you could modify to attach to your racks using a plastic backer's cut from 25liter oil drums.You could get yourself set up for under £100 with a bit of ingenuity and some basic tools.

Here are a bunch of things that might help?

Yeah to be fair, with those racks you can use anything. In an emergency, even just strap dry bags to both racks, and tent/roll mat/chair across the back. 

[Brad887766]

The Nelson Rigg Deluxe adventure pannier are good also, they are $215 but a little smaller then the Magadans.

[Lewie]

Presume the op is in the UK as he’s planning a Scotland trip?.

[Brad887766]

I believe adventure spec is a UK company. 
Nelson Rigg is a USA company.

Thank you guys fo you inputs i've bought kriega OS Base 36 thought about to buy budget panniers but i knew i will end up buying kriega 

[Green String]

Ive also purchased the Kriega OS base with 2 x 18 ltr bags. Last night I saw a video of a Tenere owner who showed the weight of his bags (also Kriega OS base) had damaged the rear plastic piece on the bike, where the bags rest on. I’m not referring to cosmetic damage but actually snapping off the screwed mounting points in a couple of places.

I’m surprised as I have never heard of before. There seems to be a large portion of the community using rackless  systems that sit directly against the bike. Is this a one off? Does this happen with other rackless systems (Enduristan. Mosko Moto etc)? Has anyone else heard of this or had a similar experience?

Budget options and reviews seem very good on these

Mine still in a post will see how would they settle if not then will get side panniers rack and different panniers 

[Canuck8]

Tusk Highland X2 or the Tusk Pilot are good budget options. I use the Mosko 80 and a friend rides with the Tusk brand. He is totally happy with his purchase and spent alot less than I did. Long term durability had yet to be determined.

Just a little update got my Kriega OS Base 36 but i have rear rack so cant use OS base with rear rack 

[Dougie]

Are you still using the side racks? The 18s will clip straight on.

This is about as narrow as you can get with hoops, (Andystrapz) but there are obviously the flat versions too. My OS18s go straight on  

[Rider5]

[Rider5]

just checked cant get Andystrapz here in UK

Outback UK does 

Total width of the asymmetrical pannier racks: 55cm
