I love reading all the comments, its as if people don't actually pay attention to what you say, then apparently do not actually read the other comments either :). People are lazy these days, I am surprised someone hasn't just asked you to come out and install these for them...heck, ride the bike for them and send them the video, and be sure it is edited to some music of their bike looking cool while you're at it. Its a Friday of a long week, rant over, sorry. Thanks for the great and informative content, looking forward to more, my 890R comes in January, decision to go with the KTM over other options was made easier by watching videos like yours!
I was gonna go with a outback pannier rack system but they’re back ordered, looked on the mosko website they’re sold out so I’ll just wait. Gonna go with this style set up. It just makes more sense. Thanks for the video!
For those curious about the rear luggage rack, in the video he calls it a “Prerun” rack when it is actually “Perun” from Perun Moto. That will help if searching for one.
Great vid thanks for the time making it , now im sure on the brand im getting but not sure on the size i need 40 or 80 , will have to work out exactly what im taking and lay it out ... cheers 👍🏼🇦🇺
I like your set up. Thinking about getting the Mosko Moto for my KTM 890 Adventure also. I was thinking about removing the side covers and installing a Perunmoto luggage rail and tube on each side for extra fuel cannisters or tools.
Im getting my first adv bike feb next year 2023 ktm 890r but there's so much gear out there for them its crazy to try and make your mind up on what to get , i want to get it right the first time but definatly going to go with the mosko it seems to be what im looking for just need to work out if i need the 40 or 80 , finally settled on a tower the other day will be good to cut away bit of the wind on the chest on those long highway rides aswell as putting the gps in line of sight because im always getting bloody lost so I will have no excuses this time , hope you are happy with your set up mate shes a sweet ride ... cheers
thanks for this! I am one of the idiots that looped the R80 dry bags straps over on top since I've had them 🤦🏻♂️ I agree 100% - this is an awesome system. I use the 40L duffle instead of the stinger 22L since my sleeping bag is a bit on the bulky side.
Thanks for the video! Did you not need the heat shield on your exhaust pipe? Can you please share a link to where to purchase your floor jack? Thank you!
Very straight forward on how to mount the R80 and bags and nice video. I wrap then strap some turns on the pass.pegs just to ge less movements (what I guess), You think it's fine with just one wrap around?
I'm using the Cycra Pro-bends and they have held up great, I have after market bars mounted though. The stock bars have a little more sweep so the Cycras (and most others) might have to be tweeked slightly when installing to account for that if using the stock bars.
Thanks for video! Is it possible to pull the reckless system more backward on the Perun plate so 2 people can sit? Have a need to sometimes take pillion with me. Thanks, cheers 👍
After a test fit and run with it I opted to not install the heat shield and didn't have any issues during a long trip with it. The holster on the exhaust side sits just far enough forward to catch the OEM shield and this was enough. If I moved the bags back any further I would want the heat shield for sure.
I like your bracket on the left side. Does anyone make anything like that for someone with less fabrication skills? How does the soft luggage do on the exhaust side with heat?
Thanks! I haven't seen a stand off for the left side commercially produced but have seen a few other takes on the concept. The luggage does fine with the exhaust but it depends on how far back you mount it whether another shield is needed. The stock shield on the exhaust keeps it from laying on the muffler as long as you don't mount it too far back.
Perun makes a bracket (for the other side too if you want). To that bracket you can mount a toolbag or similar. See www.perunmoto.com/blogs/blog/mosko-moto-reckless-80-revolver-on-ktm-790-adventure-r
Nice and easy set-up. sits relatively far forward, which is good for weight distribution. Could you mount this system without the rear luggage rack? I see the bags barely touch the rack, but you use it to tie it down.
You could probably make do with the stock rack. It has two slits in the back for straps but the piece under the rack would need to be shaved a bit in oder to run the straps through easily and I'm not sure how long it would hold up since it's just plastic. But any rack that offers secure tie down points would work. Might even be able to get some D rings to mount under the rear most bolts to strap to with the stock rack.
I have the same Perun and Reckless 80 setup. I also use Andy Strapz luggage support racks to give some bike protection and keep the bag off pipe and as support on LH side. But I reckon you could use without any rear rack (the stock rack is no plastic - it is a heavy cast metal thing - I know as I put Perun on a few weeks ago)
Enjoyed the vid. I’ll be pulling the trigger on a Reckless 80 once we’re beyond the pandemic-related closures, and back at trip planning. Do you have a tent already packed in this setup? What kind? Also, how do you like that motorcycle jack? Which is it? Thanks for putting up the vid!
Hi Tom, Yep the tent is in there. I'm currently using is an Alps Lynx 1 man tent. I pack it in the top bag with sleeping bag, air mattress etc and a few other misc lightweight camp things. I picked up the Alps before my last trip when my MSR Hubba Hubba 2 man tent was starting to show it's age and fall apart. Both tents are self supporting back packing style tents and weigh about the same and also pack down to about the same size. In short - The Alps is considerably cheaper, not as roomy, and a bit heavier built. The MSR uses lighter weight materials, is more roomy, has bigger rain flys to store stuff out of the weather, and is a bit cooler to sleep in which can be a good or bad thing depending on the weather. Glad you found the video helpful. I may do some others while we're locked down on other bike mods I've done and why.
Just got my reckless 80 and yeah, the passenger handles don't work well with the system. what kind of luggage rack did you use? I couldn't make out what you said.
Nice vid! Any issues without running a heat shield on the muffler? I run the Reckless 40 on my 790R, but will probably have to eventually pony up for the 80....
Thanks. The video is a bit rough but gets the basics covered. Lol. I haven't has any issues running without the Mosko heat sheild. It does sit close but doesnt ride directly on the exhaust. The front oem heat shield seems to keep it off enough.
I've never tried it. IMO the design doesn't lend itself to being used 2-up because by the time you get the top bag back far enough to accommodate a passenger the side holsters would be very far back on the bike.
Thanks for the video. Very interesting for people like me who just got the KTM 790 and who's looking to buy a luggage system like the Mosko Reckless 80. The black bar you put on the left side is great but I can't find it on the internet. Do you have a link where I can get it? Thanks, cheers 👍
Hi Ken, The rear is a Motoz Adventure H/T. It holds up longer than a full on dirt tire on a big powerful bike and it gets a bite in the dirt better than most ADV tires. It's manners on the street are ok, but nothing to write home about. Solid tire choice when the priority is tire life and dirt performance. Can't make out what I happened to have on the front at the time. Probably a Pirelli Scorpion Rally which again is a good choice if dirt is the priority and holds up ok on the street (for an aggressive tire).
Hi Martin, As I had it mounted the front of the luggage was supported by the rear of the OEM heat shield and kept it off and didn't burn. However I do have the Mosko heat shield sitting on the shelf I can put on if it ever causes a problem.
@@Windblown good, I was thinking how is this solved. I am glad to hear that mosko has solution for it :-) I am currently lloking for some goof bags ;-)
Hey! I have a Norden Expedition and can’t decide between the Reckless 80 and Outback rack system. Interesting to see you remove the plastic panels and grab rails. My questions are : how can u pick up the bike without the grab handles and what is the total width of those set up? Do you have a comparable width for the Outback system?
I usually lift the bike from the handlebars rather than use a front and rear hold. I have no idea what the width is. Not mounted at the moment. I've heard good things about the outback system but haven't tried it.
I love reading all the comments, its as if people don't actually pay attention to what you say, then apparently do not actually read the other comments either :).

everything else i wanted to know before spending my cash
Thanks for the video! Did you not need the heat shield on your exhaust pipe? Can you please share a link to where to purchase your floor jack? Thank you!
Hi, I never had any issues with mine without a heat shield. As I recall I got the floor jack from Sears. It's just an aluminum body ATV/MC jack.
Thank you!
Thank you for the video. Very informative. I have a much better feel now for how those bags would work on my 790R.
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the vid . Can you still wear a camelbak with the rack in that position? I'd be using the stock rack
Very straight forward on how to mount the R80 and bags and nice video. I wrap then strap some turns on the pass.pegs just to ge less movements (what I guess), You think it's fine with just one wrap around?
Got a question, well had 2 but I saw the answer reading the replies about exhaust heat...but my other question is what handguards did you go with?
I'm using the Cycra Pro-bends and they have held up great, I have after market bars mounted though. The stock bars have a little more sweep so the Cycras (and most others) might have to be tweeked slightly when installing to account for that if using the stock bars.
Thanks for video! Is it possible to pull the reckless system more backward on the Perun plate so 2 people can sit? Have a need to sometimes take pillion with me. Thanks, cheers 👍
You could certainy pull it pretty far back but not sure it would give the passenger much room. Sorry I can't answer for sure. Never tired it.
Did you decide not to use the heat shield? I didn't see it in the video. I have the same bike and the same luggage, btw and love how they work. Cheers

Oh yeah, and the motorcycle jack works fine. It's just a Sear Motorcycle/ATV jack. Hasn't done anything to piss me off so I like it fine. :)
Windblown Ha! Nice!
Windblown Great info. Thanks much! Appreciate the detailed reply! 👍👍
Just got my reckless 80 and yeah, the passenger handles don't work well with the system.
what kind of luggage rack did you use? I couldn't make out what you said.
Luggage rack is made by Perun.
@@Windblown thanks brother!
Great video, thnx for posting. Question: How are the bags protected form the exhaust heat?
Where I have the bags mounted I havent had any issues with heat. I do have the MOSKO heat sheild but didnt need on this bike.
Nice vid! Any issues without running a heat shield on the muffler?
I run the Reckless 40 on my 790R, but will probably have to eventually pony up for the 80....

Can this mount further back on the rack to allow a passenger

I made the bar in my garage out of a section of steel 1/2" conduit. Sorry, dont know of anyone making them for sale. Not too tough to fab up though.
@@Windblown I also thought it was a fabrication of yours. I would do the same. Thank u
Unrelated to the bags , but what tires are those and how do they perform overall?
Hi Ken, The rear is a Motoz Adventure H/T. It holds up longer than a full on dirt tire on a big powerful bike and it gets a bite in the dirt better than most ADV tires. It's manners on the street are ok, but nothing to write home about. Solid tire choice when the priority is tire life and dirt performance.

how about exhaust ? Is it touching it ? How do you make sure that it will not burn ? :D Coudln´t really see that :(
