    GIVI E21 Panniers

    I fancy a pair of GIVI E21 panniers to complement my top box, and would prob leave them on all the time. Anyone used them? Bigger panniers tend to be more off than on.

    Yep they were on my strom when i got it, they are great. I sold them and upgraded to the 41`s but in all honesty i wish i'd kept with the smaller 21`s.

    Yes i can fit a lot more in the 41`s but i only use them for things like the national whereas wheni had the 21's i used to leave them on all the time and carry tools and all sorts in them because they don't give any extra width so you forgot they were there.

    Go for it, they are excellent panniers.

    I had them on my Trannie when I bought it. I sold them to use my bigger ones. But I did like the top loading capability and their lightness.

    I have them. Done tours with them and a top box. I like the top loading style.

    I got some for last years TLD. I didn't even bother with the top box (that's where the tent went) perfect for me, top load, easy removed, slim what more do you need. Go for it !!

    Yep, I too have E21's on my @ for everyday commuting. They're small enough not to affect filtering too much and the top loading design is very practical. Wouldn't be without them. For proper touring I've got some 36 litre cases, B36N's.

    Well I have to say, having fitted these they are the dog's bollox. The top-loading is the clincher. Fantastic bit of kit. Well pleased
