I have the stock 650 vstrom adventure that came with the Suzuki stock square paniers. I was wondering if anyone has put a netting in the lid section to be able to carry stuff that might be needed easily. I know that one model offers nett but will it work in the Suzuki's? Or what else have you done? Thanks
I have removable bags up on the crash bars for tools, air pump, chain lube. Gets it where you can easily access without unpacking sidecases plus it keeps dirty tools and dirty hands away from where your clean undies are stored.
I don't have stock cases, I have the Caribou system on my 2007, but I did add a stretchy mesh net to the inside lid of my top box. It's nice to hold extra gloves, a ball cap, some extra shop wipes. Little things that are nice to access but don't weigh much. I hang a tire pressure gauge from it, so it's always "right there" when I need it.
I'll snap a picture of it when I get home and post it.
I bought this net from twisted throttle but was disappointed when it arrived and realized it did not come with the hooks to attach to the top box lid. So no good for me.
Don't know what forum it was on but there are commercially made dividers that fit in bags to trap the contents.
Googling 'saddlebag dividers' gives a host of choices.
I purchased some netting but was unable to secure it inside my Givi boxes, all the glues I tried failed when the weather got hot and I'm not ready to drill holes "yet", I'm still looking into it.
I have a Shad 40 top box and they use screws to attach a rack to the top of the box from the inside, I was able to use the racks screws to attach a net to the lid of the top box and it works well.
I really like the pics of your KLR :smile2: I had a big pack on my Wee on start of Alaska Trip.I used a old car trunk bag to hold a lot.The border guard looked at my bike,laughed,and asked,Is that all your's?":grin2: Glad he did not make me unload it!:surprise:
This is about as clean as I ever remember my Wee being.It usually only gets washed in the winter to get road salt off.
