Moto-Sport Panniers
 
I have ordered the Jesse Panniers, but now I have some second thoughts... The Jesse's seem to be great, but they are big. Not sure I really need all that space (but I know I will fill it up once I have it, which is a problem).

I am now toying with the idea of getting a pair of Moto-Sport Panniers (http://www.moto-sportpanniers.com/index.htm), which are much smaller (26 liters each, about half the size of Jesse's). I have always been of the less-is-more opinion and like to (try) travel light. These smaller panniers should give me some extra speed and fun on the road as I’ll be able to push the limits a bit further on the dirt stretches.

What are peoples opinion of the Moto-Sport panniers? Are they solid enough for serious riding? Are they too small?

Thanks

Hi Johan,
I have yet to meet anyone who has used Moto Sport Panniers, but everyone unanimously agress that Jesse bags are about as good as they get.

What sort of terrain are you going to ride on? Do you expect to ride on rough off-road terrain or will you be on smooth roads? The Jesses have a reputation for being very tough and I'd be tempted to stick with them if I was going off-road for a long period of time.

Anyone have any opinions on the MotoSport Panniers?
