| Mosko Reckless 40l & 80l bags vs. Giantloop | |

| Question for those who have used the GiantLoop bags..... I | |
| have been in contact with the guys at Mosko about their new | |
| 'Reckless' 40l and 80l bags. Take a look at these videos that | |
| show their 2 'Reckless' bags. | |

| Would love to hear from GiantLoop owners on how these 'compare' | |
| to what you have. A little cheaper than GL too. One (of | |
| many) concerns is easy of removing / installing the bags, you | |
| know, since our beloved fuel filler is in most inaccessible | |
| location! | |
| Mosko is a small company out of Portland OR and a real group of | |
| riders. Great to deal with and trying to make their name known | |
| in the market and have been super responsive to emails so far. | |
| I don't really want to deal with side racks etc. Wanted | |
| something like the Giantloop bag. Wonder how the lack of rear | |
| subframe etc on the 690 will hold up with this style of bag. | |
| Looking to finish riding the TAT late July and trying to figure | |
| out how to carry stuff without the Dakar support trucks | |
| following me (ok, not carrying THAT much stuff!) | |
| Appreciate any feedback. | |
| (Also going to post this on the TAT FB and 690 us owners FB | |
| pages - so sorry for any duplicates!) | |

| I understand the desire to keep things light, but I thought the | |
| distribution of weight provided by sideracks was a greater | |
| benefit. Besides, the side racks themselves are actually very | |
| light. | |
| Good luck on the TAT. I wanna see some pics and hear your | |
| story. Don't worry about duplicate posting, it will just give | |
| more folks a chance to read about it. | |

| It's a cost thing also..... racks get $$$ | |
| Soooo if anyone has a set they want to sell me, let me know! | |

| I like the looks of these. they seem pretty well thought out. I | |
| need to start doing a little more research to figure out just | |
| witch bags I want. I think the 40l would be good for weekend get | |
| aways. | |
