MotoFizz Camping Seat bag

Hi All,

I really fancy one of the Motofizz camping seat bags ( MotoFizz Camping Seat Bags (Small, Medium & Large) :: Seat & Rack Bags :: Seat Bags and Tail Bags :: Packing It In :: Aerostich/RiderWearHouse Motorcycle Jackets, Suits, Clothing, & Gear), but trying to get hold of one, other than from Aerostitch in the US (who haven't got the size I want anyway), is proving really difficult .
Does anyone know if there is a MotoFizz supplier in the UK or mainland Europe?

Cheers

Potski

Re: MotoFizz Camping Seat bag

They look very neat, lots of features that are well thought out but I think I'll stick to a 100% waterproof 50 litre seat bag from Louis for €12 I bought my last one 14 years ago the reflective tape has fell off the sponsor logo has rubbed away but its still 100% waterproof


they are on offer at the mo they normally cost €17 and they have exactly the same in blue with the web address on as a sponsor bag for €7

thats just for the little one, the useful one is $167, plus postage, plus import duty maybe.

i would go for (have gone for!) a big, simple ortleib duffle type bag without the "steal me" bottle pockets and fancy buckles.
cheap, totally waterproof, strong, and easily adjusted as big or as small as you want. my 90ltr bag rolls down to 1ltr if i want it to. i get a kyham biker tent and fold up armchair in mine, both big packages.

Re: MotoFizz Camping Seat bag

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the bag help...
Actually the nice guys at Aerostich quoted me $209!!!! for the medium, plus maybe a little French tax and it would take them until mid May at least to get hold of one before then sending it over to me.
As I go canoeing too, I have a canoeing bag similar to the Ortleib, but basically everything gets stuffed in and getting at stuff at the bottom means the lot has to come out...dry though no doubt about that.
I like the idea of all the pockets in the MotoFizz. I have a set of Givi T421 side bags on at the moment, which are of a similar pockety design, really easy to use. Not had any water issues as long as you put the rain covers on them...but even without have survived a few downpours, so can't see the MotoFizz being much different.

Had a look at Louis, could only see them at 11.95€... still good value though.

Cheers
Potski

The black one are on offer at €11,95
the blue are classed as a sponsor bag for €6,95

I'll be going up next week to get a new one but mail order from Louis is fantastic
