Just found them on amazon for about �30 they looked pretty sturdy for the money and I wondered if they fitted the Ten

They don't look much different to the Oxford 'sports' panniers I bought years ago. I've used these on the Ten with no problems. Bit of a faff to get em on but nothing difficult. I put everything in bags to keep dry.

Only trouble with this stuff is if you expand them and pack loads of gear in, they tend to hang inwards under their own weight, but I can pack in enough for a wkends camping no problems.

If you want to carry loads of gear then probly better off with some panniers/cases, though I just hate the look too LWR for me (though tempted by those ARD cases), for travelling light and �30 sounds good.

Sums them up quite nicely. Good for the money

cheers they now seem to have gone back up to �50 so I will wait until they are cheap again

Hein Gericke do a set that are almost identical, try having a look in there.

I got a set a while back, but not used then yet (they are for the XJR) as the bikes been laid up for the winter.

Personally I avoid soft throwovers like the plague..

How many stories have we heard about the soft panniers getting into the rear wheel sending the bike and rider down the road?

Too high risk for my liking - no matter how cheap..

Here you go ; http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...fvi%3D1&_rdc=1

�33.90 ?

When I first got the TEN I used Oxford throwovers and found them fine. The heat shields on the Ten are quite robust and do keep the heat away from the panniers, BUT even on other bikes I have always used a ratchet strap to really secure the panniers onto the bike and not relied on gravity to keep the straps between onto the seat.
'Crusty' has made some rails that go from just underneath the rear carrier to the rear passenger footrest brackets which will substatially reinforce the back end of the bike and give you something to secure the panniers to. Now he has his new panniers I know he has a pair of these bars spare. Hint Hint.
...........and I've seen just how much he can carry on his bike with soft throwovers!

Mine sit on the heat shields on the R without problem too.

The ones I have got have an extra strap that goes under the seat first to stop the panniers lifting in the wind, then two main straps over the top of the seat, then one across the back of the panniers and four (yes four) heavy bungees.
I cant see how they can go anywhere if fitted properly
