Custom Panniers for XT500

My wife and i are planning an overland trip on an XT500. I am looking for advice and tips on designing panniers for the bike. I would like them to hold equipment and clothes etc for two people with camping gear. I would also like the panniers to be removable.

Please help!

See:

http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/tri...e/panniers.php

not all info you will want is there, but a good start. The links page also has links to info on ready-made panniers which will give you more info.

Send in pics and text on whatever you DO create, and maybe we can post it to help the next person.
