Hoping to do a spot of weekend touring over in Scotland soon on my 99 Fazer FZS 600 Would appreciate any advice / recommendations from anyone with regards to which panniers they would recommend (soft) ...... many thanks in advance to those who take the time to share their know-how ......

Oxford always seem to be favourite. Just make sure that the size of the luggage fits the bike. My indicators got in the way of any decent size luggage so I had to make a bracket and move them.

I have a Moto Detail set that has a centre pad that fixes to the seat and the panniers just clip on. Got them from Getgeared

Thanks for the advice & pics - they look the business. 1 question though - with the centre pad, can you unclip one pannier at a time - say if you wanted to carry it in on a short visit (I visit patients daily in my job) and some soft luggage I've seen looks good but you have to loosen the entire system to take one pannier with you anywhere.

You can undo one at a time but depending on how much you carry, have a look at the Kriega system They do 10 and 20 ltrs (maybe more) LINKY

Cheers
