It's SW Motech EVO footpegs:

They are wider and larger than the OEM pegs.
I have mounted them in the lowest position (-15 mm).
They have made a bigger difference than I had expected. I really like them.
Thanks Don. I'm going to take a look at those pegs.

Looks nice I see they significantly increased the price as well. Can't go wrong with Mosko stuff.
When I was looking for luggage I was a bit put off on the price of the Mosko Moto stuff. It's high quality and so many configurations that you truly do get what you pay for. I have the older version of the Mosko Moto Backcountry 35's. I'm very happy with them. I expect them to last the life of my bike.

Holan Nomada Pro and Mosko Moto R80 Revolver data comparison:

Capacity:
Holan Nomada Pro 2 x 38 L = 72 L (the exhaust cut out on the left panniers steal 4 L)
Mosko Moto R80 Revolver = 72 L (I didn't get the 2 x 4 L aux pockets)

Weight:
Holan Nomada: Panniers 12.9 kg/28.5 lbs + rack 3.2 kg/7.1 lbs = 16.1 kg/35.6 lbs
MM R80 R: Harness and straps 4.29 kg/9.5 lbs + all bags (except the aux pockets) 2.04 kg/4.5 lbs = 6.33 kg/14 lbs


Even though the Holan Nomada panniers are pretty light compared to many other brands similar alu panniers, I still save 9.77 kg/21.6 lbs with the MM R80 R without losing capacity.

WOW!! It looks like the luggage is custom made for your bike. What I like about it is you have plenty of room to move around while standing when the terrain gets tough.

Yep - it fits like a glove and even the colors is a perfect match.

I really like that the beaver tail is removable. Did you put any clear vinyl on your bike to protect it rubbing. My Strom had a bit of paint removal from the PO running the MABDR with an R80 and not putting anything between it and the bike. I wish it didn't eat up the pillion seat so much as it does or I would sell all my other luggage and just go with this, but I have a feeling wifey wouldn't be too happy.

I’m really stuck between the Reckless 80 and Backcountry pannier system. I like them both for different reasons. Does anyone have both and have an opinion? I’m 80 road/20 off road

If your really 80% on road I feel the Backcountry is the better setup for that. Easy to add a duffle too if you need more space. Really nice to be able to pop the whole piece off and carry it inside with one latch. Not bashing the r80 in any way if weight is your worry or you don't want to add racks it's the best thing I've seen yet. But if your talking about an S10 saving weight (really) isn't really doing much in the grand scheme. If your thinking of expandability the Backcountry is much easier to do. With a Backcountry 40 duffle and the panniers your talking 110 liters of storage plus pouches can be added for almost another 10. So it really comes down to want you want to spend the cheapest route is definitely the R80 but for the ease of use the Backcountry was a no brainier for me since I had the racks already.

I think both systems are a fantastic choice for long trips. I chose the Backcountry 35's because I always wanted a pannier system and do more street riding. The quick release is a plus. The Reckless 80's are going to be every bit as good and I'm willing to bet much more manageable off the highway.

It really comes down to what you are going to use it for.

That explains the fit, When I installed my V2 I tried it both ways and it defiantly fit better with the handles off. Its not a big deal to remove them and they would serve no purpose when the R80 is on anyway.

Since I run hard panniers most of the time and swap the R80 on for trips its simple enough to take them off along with the pannier racks.

My setup fits a lot better without the passenger seat and grab handles as well. What I like about Don's is how clean and OEM it looks. It is made to fit the Super Tenere perfectly. Mosko Moto products are amazing!!

It's the Backcountry 30L Duffle.
