Hi Geoff
A few pictures of my SW Motech ION side panniers with the Honda top box setup. I fitted them in 2017, they have been watertight but some things could be better. The locks are pretty poor and no match for what Givi or Honda offer, they work but could be busted quite easily. There are a few spots of rush on the frames where the coating has chipped/rubbed off and some of the spring washers that hold the locks in place are corroding. The bike has been used over winter and covered about 30,000 miles with the panniers fitted.
On a positive note the rails come off with an unlock and twist of a knob and a quick turn of a spring fastening near the reg plate.
The panniers or 45 ltr and do stick out further than the handlebars. They are Okay but I feel are not to the same quality as the other bikes I ride with Givi, Honda & BMW luggage.

No filtering for you I guess!

I fitted the 26 liter panniers, which make them smaller then the handlebars. And they are big enough for a multi-week trip one up.
