They come with waterproof inner drybags, that are removable.I have a set of hard BUMOTs on mine. How is the soft luggage? Are they water proof or need an inner liner? How do they hold up to MUSKO?
Sorry for taking so long, the spoiler on my screen is a Laminar Lip for a Buell Ulysses. It fits very well and works well. However, thanks to this Forum, I have found what I think is the ultimate solution and after recommendations, I bought and fitted a Givi Aeroflot screen and it is brilliant!The spoiler on your windscreen, where did you get that from? You satisfied?
Would that be a Russian rip-off of the Airflow?I bought and fitted a Givi Aeroflot screen and it is brilliant!
Hahahaha! Nice one! No, it is a genuine Italian one but auto-corrected by my spell checker!Would that be a Russian rip-off of the Airflow?
Nice the camo decals, how did you manage to do this?Pics of my Bumots on my 2015 ES.
Looks fantastic, what about the side carrier, is it givi PL2119CAM?Stock straight from the factory, plan to get some larger ones for next year View attachment 83731
I was gonna say no cause Yamaha uses equal 37L Trekker Outback panniers, where the PL2119CAM is designed for asymmetrical panniers. The pic above proves me wrong, rack looks the same as a PL2119CAMLooks fantastic, what about the side carrier, is it givi PL2119CAM?
The OEM panniers look sleek, but aren't the best. There's no extra protection, but will do ok in a parking lot tip over.What issues, if any, are common with the OEM side cases? Obviously, they’re not built like Jesse’s, but few are. Are the OEM side cases top-opening?
My current bike (not a Teneré) has bag guards. With an ST, if the bike goes over, are there armor options for the rear, or the bags just suck it up and take part of the load?

On the positive side you don't have any racks when they're off, they're keyed to the ignition, and look good on the bike. They are top opening.
Negatives are they're fairly small ~30L, left side is especially useless at only about 6" wide (going from memory, could be wrong) internally at the bottom where it curves around the exhaust. I never checked, but pretty sure I could fit the same amount of real world stuff in one Trekker Outback 37L pannier as both OEM panniers. The locks are fiddly and known for twisting keys. Some people have broken the latches which are plastic. The frame is plastic with aluminum trim panels so not the strongest. There aren't any loops on the top for tying things to the lids.
If you get them with the bike, they're ok, but I definitely would not buy them or pay a premium for a bike with them. I used mine for a couple trips before getting Givi Trekker Outback's which cost a small fortune but had zero regrets after one trip.
