Fz1 pannier bags
« on: 31 January 2016, 01:28:58 pm »
Has anyone used any on a Fz1N, looking at the Oxford X50 but not sure how they will fit with the small rear seat...
Cheers.

I've used a pair of Oxford Sports panniers on my FZ1-S. The 'bridging' straps across the top - Velcro - go underneath the pillion seat. Then it's just a case of manoeuvring the other straps underneath the tail unit and fastening them together. Recommend you put one of those non-slip luggage mats between the panniers and the paintwork, though.

The SW Motech Blaze set up is about the best without going to full hard luggage.

Thanks guys, just won a used set of Oxford sports 50lt, only 35£. Did not want to spend too much, still concerned they won't work out for my touring set up. My 1st time touring so been buying all sorts and spent loads so happy for something cheap  :lol
Will get something like slip proof mat to protect paint, will order once I have tried them on the bike.
