Petrol tank bag/panniers
Looking for some bags/panniers to go on an 23l aceberis tank on my TT600RE - saw some at the HU meeting but forgot to write down the name of the company making them.

You saw them on mine and the wifes bikes, I have aerostich, wolfman and hein gericke, the hein gericke are not available any more. The wolfman and aerostich are both US made and may sit on your knees if you are tall. The panniers are great for easy access stuff like bug spray, snacks, spare gloves etc. Tank is 20 litre (XT is 23).

There is also (unfortunately) touratech ones. and I have to say that they are very good (that is cus they are not made by TT). Although TT sells them as bike specific from what i can see they are universal..
