I am very interested. But was hoping for someone to post a review on the bags. I was wondering if the larger "Ranger" model, hangs too low. I would like the most storage possible without collecting 2 acres of land with each ride. It looks like a great way to carry extra gear rather than on top of the seat - rack area.

$200 seems like a lot to me. Maybe it's not though

If I had a KLR650 or DR650, I would probably get those bags. The way I use the KLX, it just wouldn't be practical as I drop the bike a lot in deep mud so the bags along with its contents would get yukky.

Those bags look too beautifully made to get it all muddy. An old ugly knapsack is the best solution for me on my KLX.

Now Thats a great find!! Got to get me some of those. They will come in handy to carry all of my Baja 5b gear when I take it to Rat in some of the sand Bowls I found trail riding!!!

Here is a couple shots of the KLX with Dirt Bagz mounted on my bike in Thailand. I've taken them on 4 day dirt bike trips and week long super motard runs. Crashed them on pavement into anArmco and highsided in ruts in the dirt and they are still going strong.


The company was just making the brackets when i left for Thailand so had to fab some up over here.


Right side.





Right side bag withstood the brunt of the crash and no rips or tears. Dirt Bagz are the ****.
