Thanks for sharing the installation process and capabilities of the Maskomoto. I’m looking a similar setup for my BMW F900GS, but has been hard to find the right rack for that setup.
Great video Adam. You can get the high tensile cap heads in a plated version, prevents corrosion, but you need to ask for them. The black ones rust really easily.
thanks for your time doing the videos. I'm not sure what your security straps look like...I have some sail board/kayak straps with a metal wire down the middle with a lock on them, might be an alternative. Looking forward to seeing the big trip!!
No worries, the current straps I have are wide nylon with a steel cable down the middle, they are just too big to fit these panniers thats all. I just need the 5mm steel cable ones. I might just have to suck it up and get the 6ft versions.
One question buddy, what rear rack are you using there? Good video! The outback motorek pannier rack very useful, its impresive brands don't do more videos about their products !
@arnulph2379 That's the nomad adv rear rack, I put that on the same time I put the original enduristan bags on, I have a video on here about it. It works great for what im currently doing.
To sort your pole issues, check out some bikepacking tents - spendy but they usually have 12" poles and pack down to around 30cm. Nemo, Big Agnes, Sea to Summit and MSR are great brands with some really nice lightweight tents for bike/moto camping. The only downside is the cost compared to a standard hiking tent.
Thanks for that, I used to have a big agnes and have used a few of the MSRs unfortunately, they are still around the same pole length size to what I currently have and pack slightly bigger. Its all good though.
Hello, I did consider them but they are wider than I wanted, and had already purchased the outback motortek racks in preparation for their boxes. If I went to the Ducati ones Id have to get the OEM rack and im not having much luck with ducatis welding on their accessories at the moment.
I use this kit, it comes with the levers as well. It works great. No need for a dedicated tire changer unless your doing them every week. ruclips.net/video/kes3gUqE09Y/видео.html

This setup looks really good, probably way better than what you had planned ! Great video as always. I am actually waiting on the MM reckless 80.
If I can get aome replacement security straps it should be 👍
I have a similar setup with my Desert X. I have outback panniers but with the factory racks. I love the videos.
Great video Adam. You can get the high tensile cap heads in a plated version, prevents corrosion, but you need to ask for them. The black ones rust really easily.
Thanks 👍, Yeah I will replace them after my trip when I pull it all off again for a clean. Was a bit limited with my options on a Sunday lol.

Very nice video man! Outback Motortek racks don't touch on SC Project exhaust?
They just kiss the SC project logo.
Nice video. Im still inclined to find a pub and pack light 🤣👌
No pubs in the middle of the desert, well only a couple anyway hahah
Hi Mate! Great content again! Have you considered the original Ducati hard boxes?
Hello, I did consider them but they are wider than I wanted, and had already purchased the outback motortek racks in preparation for their boxes. If I went to the Ducati ones Id have to get the OEM rack and im not having much luck with ducatis welding on their accessories at the moment.
@@koalakoncepts Yeah true and I think with the Outback racks you have way more options for luggage so you are not bound to just one type. Thanks!
Very helpful video! Just need some different angles of them mounted in a future video. cheers:)
Thanks for that, oh dont worry they will appear a fair bit in the upcoming videos. 👍🐨
Hey guys, I’m planning to change my tires by myself. Can you suggest a tire changer (for example max2h Evo2)for the DesertX?
I use this kit, it comes with the levers as well. It works great. No need for a dedicated tire changer unless your doing them every week. ruclips.net/video/kes3gUqE09Y/видео.html
If you decide you want to sell your Sherpa racks let me know, I have desert rally X and need something for my Krueger set up….
Definitely still keeping them for the little trips away. 🐨👍
