Hi All,

I have bought a second hand XSR700 a few week ago and have been enjoying every meter I rode on it so far. I use it for every fun rides and as transport, since i don't have a car.
When i bought it the motorbike had a lot of yamaha extra´s on it. I tried the Yamaha soft side bag for a while and can conclude its pretty useless. So searched for other side bags on the internet and found nothing decent for the XSR.
So I have bought 2 surplus bags and have tried to make one of them fit to the yamaha rack. I´m curious about what you think of the result.

Hi there and welcome to the forum. Pretty New myself so I hope I'm not treading on any toes by welcoming you in first.

Bike looks fab as all XSR700's tend to do. I think those surplus bags are an utterly fantastic idea. They look great and and enhance that mad max raw look that I love so much. I think I'll try to track something similar down for myself.

First post and an inspiration all ready!

Welcome to the forum. Those bags look pretty authentic on the XSR - and much more spacious than the Yamaha side panniers.

Welcome to the forums. The bag doesn't look bad at all either.

Welcome to the forum Kirerev! I'm sure that you will enjoy the XSR. Is it your first motorcycle?

Thanks for the welcome! its a 35L bag, so its pretty large. Also is a big advantage that i can still use it as an backpack.

I have had one bike before, it was an honda transalp. So its quite a change.
