Provides 90 liters (4,270 cubic inches) of packable volume (45 liters per side).

Waterproof: Made from rugged Bomb Shell™ materials with double reinforced ballistic nylon impact zones constructed to be completely waterproof, mudproof, snowproof, and dustproof when used with included Dry Pods™.

Roll top with durable side-release buckles for secure closure and load stability.

Included set of two seam-sealed waterproof inner liner Dry Pods™ keep gear dry and organized.

Fitment

Round The World Panniers are designed to bolt onto GL Pannier Mounts (recommended) or other luggage racks using the internal frame sheets. The frame sheets have pre-drilled holes to attach to the GL Pannier Mounts. Additional drill holes may need to be added for other rack types. In addition, some tools and assembly are required. Refer to the product instructions for details.

For riders who want compatibility with their current hard luggage rack system, Round The World Panniers can also mount to many motorcycle luggage rack systems with flat, vertical, hoop-style sides and 16-18 mm diameter tubing, using the rack manufacturer’s hardware. Examples include Touratech, Happy Trails, SW-Motech, Hepco & Becker, and many others. In addition, many manufacturers, such as Jesse Luggage, offer adapter plates that make them suitable for mounting Round The World Panniers on racks that are not flat and vertical.

Round The World Panniers™ combine rack-mounted convenience with the benefits of soft luggage for long-haul adventure motorcycle travelers. Waterproof, lightweight, super stable, and built to take the punishment of off-road riding, the Round The World Panniers deliver maximum volume while weighing just 10.4 pounds (less than 15 pounds with GL Pannier Mounts and hardware – sold separately). Additionally, when used with our GL Pannier Mounts, the Round The World Panniers become a quick-release, quick-mount, lockable soft luggage system.

The panniers deliver 90 liters of packable volume with a roll-top closure. Compression wings located on the outside of each pannier help stabilize the load and provide additional storage. Two huge pockets on each pannier (one roll-top, one open-top with drawcord) provide quick access to essentials.

    I’ve owned these since 2016, and they have seen the TAT, San Juan mtn range (black bear, cinnamon pass, engineer, etc) the Ozarks, long range everything. I love these bags!!!they have enough room for just about everything you need to ride and camp, I use two Tillamahook top bags for extra gear, which by the way strap perfectly and locked on top with no slippage. They’ve held up to everything I’ve thrown at them, only broke one snap lock, which was my fault. But the buckles are easily replaced and super cheap on the site here. Super strong sewing and materials used. Best ever!!

    Just got them and travelled to Northern Greece, they performed great, I couldn’t have made a better choice!

    I’ve been using these for a while on my 2015 r1200gs. I have been paired up with the back plates and a set of Outback motortek pannier racks.

    The good –
    – They pack great, like seriously
    – Dry. No matter what. I don’t even get water on the outside of the internal bags.
    – The plates are literally bombproof.

    Room to grow :
    – the side straps are definitely a weak point.
    – I haven’t figured out why the flaps are the way they are, poles don’t really stay in one place and other than a jacket, not sure I’d put anything under them
    – the open-top and pouches are an oddball size. Too small to drop a Camelbak, not quite right for a jug of water, only really seem to hold the company fuel bladder

    Hi. I just received my Round The World pannier luggage, and it looks great. The instructions for assembly are clear and easy to follow. Being one of the largest in volume, and about the lightest in it’s class, these well constructed bags are perfect for the small dual sport bike that I’m currently riding. I really appreciate how I’ll be able to transfer these bags, onto any other future ride, with total ease. Thanks again!
