Kriega OS Base - Lightweight luggage for the KTM 790 Adventure

#ktm790adventure #kriegaOS Kriega OS Base
Kriega has a great reputation for rugged and waterproof motorcycle luggage. I've been using the OS Panniers and have been very impressed, but have been looking at a smaller lighter solution for when I don't need or want the full pannier set up. The OS Base looked promising, but there was nothing to say it fitted the standard 790 Adventure. This video details the installation onto the 's' model as well as my initial thoughts after using the bags.
There is a bit of a compromise to make as the pillion footpeg hangers need to be removed and replaced with the strap mounts. When Kriega tested the kit using the footpeg hangers, they found the edge to be sharp enough to damage the strap very quickly.
The setup up is very light, weighing only 2.3kg including the two OS-12 packs. It's 100% waterproof and can be fitted/removed very quickly. In fact, I can now remove it in half the time that I did in the video example!
