So I have been looking into getting saddle bags for my bike for some long trips I would eventually like to take. After looking around on here I have pretty much narrowed it down to either the Motopak GTS-90 http://www.motopakluggage.com/gts90.html or the Nelson Rigg CL-950 http://www.nelsonrigg.com/store/product.aspx?pid=459. I like that the Motopak is nice and big and can hold pretty much anything I would need to carry, but the lifetime warranty of Nelson Rigg is making me lean towards that one. I was just curious about peoples experiences with either of these bags. Thanks

I have a full set of Motopak 90 saddle bags, the tail bag and the largest tank bag known to man, so big I can not use all 3 pieces attached its taller than me
I love the stuff been to the rally 2 times with them and all over the place. Wobbie has the tail roll and I like it better than my tail bag
here they are on the bike minus the tail bag

I'm a nelson rigg fan myself. I own lots of their gear and wouldn't hesitate to buy more.Some people are a lot like Slinkys.
Not really good for anything, but bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

m'kay, so, i have teh motopak set, and i love them. they're huge! i fit eveything in them, and didn't have to expand them (until i couldn't stand to wear my leathers in the heat anymore.... but everything still fit in them), but! a seam did pop in them the day i left for the rally. i did a makeshift sew job, and will see how the dealer handles the 2-year factory warranty.
other than that, super happy with them. would buy them again in an instant.the kat may be the gixxer's retarded cousin, but she's a hefty broad... and i do loves me some girth between my thighs.

Thanks for the input guys. I think I am going to go with the Nelson Riggs bags, mostly because I don't think I will ever use all the space in the Motopak and its hard to say no to a lifetime warranty. Plus if I ever need the space I will just get the matching tail bag.
And mcmahonm, that tank bag is fing HUGE, how the hell do you see over that thing lol
