Horizons Unlimited - The HUBB

I bought a set of Frogman Dirtsack luggage for 6100 rupees in Delhi to replace my disintegrating Shad Zulupack bags. I also have a DRZ. I was inspired to buy them after riding with an Indian fellow that went RTW using a set on his Bonnie.

For cheap luggage they are VERY robust, they stayed waterproof the whole rest of the trip and survived several falls (I am a very bad off-road rider). The cradle system is a nice alternative to inner bags, and they allowed me to carry in the yellow roll bag portion and leave the cradle attached to the bike most places.

The downside was it's very clear that the bags were designed for an Enfield and not a dual sport. The mounting system didn't make a lot of sense (there's one big heavy strap that goes around the back that I couldn't use at all) and the lighter footpeg straps and small top rear strap aren't very robust, the footpeg straps started to tear off after a fall and the smaller strap buckle broke. That left me mostly dependent on the throwover portion to keep it on, which luckily is very tough but did mean that it had a slight tendency to slide about a bit.

Secondly because it's designed for an Enfield the bags do tend to be quite high and wide for a DRZ. I would have preferred taller and narrower bags.

Also the throwover portion is quite wide and does eat into the limited seat area a bit, and can be somewhat uncomfortable if you like to sit far back. I had a sheepskin which helped alleviate that particular problem.

Anyway it's hard to complain too much about something that cost $85 and lasted me 5 months of hard riding. With a different bike they'd be near perfect, as is I think still good if you could figure out a better way to mount them.
