Lifan Kpx250 frames for soft bags/panniers????
 
Has anyone found a soft bag solution for their Lifan Kpx 250.

I love this bag for the rack but I am working on a saddle bag solution to do some overnight and longer trips without needing to wear a hiking pack.

Rhinowalk Motorcycle Tail Bag 20L Waterproof

I did replace their metal strap connector with my own webbing to eliminate a failure point when things get bouncy. They need to model peak designs metal strap connectors.

I have been searching options and am thinking this one might work or only need some smaller adjustments to work.

I like the design on thes but more contact points and complexity doesn’t seem as likely to fit or be adjusted to fit.

I figured I would ask the question and park it here to see if anyone else has come up with a solution.

I'm searching for this same thing on my TT250. I actually have the same rhinowalk bag as that (although it's branded differently, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BHYFMF7V?th=1) and find it to be nearly perfect. On mine, the weak point is the straps that attach to the bike frame, as they pull out pretty easily from the clip over time, so I can't use the handy-dandy quick-release buckles, and just loop some rok straps through them.



I have a pretty large set of soft saddlebags, and just have used them slightly tilted to the left to try and keep them away from the exhaust, so far successfully. But I would LOVE to find a solid rack to mount them to that would actually fit mine, and so far, no luck.

This rack looks like it will work for the TT250. I wish they would expand their line to include the KPX 250.

That does look pretty darn similar, my only worry is having something that is *close* but still needing modification/welds to fit. For that price, I'd want something plug 'n play, any ideas of how well this might fit that bill?

I bought some big yellow waterproof bags , probably around a year ago, because they were on a special sale from Amazon, but only the yellow was cheap. I kinda regretted getting them, because I didn't like the color, but I did put them on my KPX right after I got it , because I didn't have anything else. I had a tailbag on order, and after it came in. I took the big yellow bags off, but I ended up swallowing my pride, and put them back on. The little rack on the muffler keeps the bag from burning, and also keeps it from pulling in towards the tire. The one on the other side did want to pull inward, so I made a little piece that just bolts on with the rear rack, and it took care of it. I will get some pictures, and post http://https://i.ibb.co/KGFdp4n/ASTRO-55-R-12272023-161052.jpg

Ah, ok. That's not bad at all. My KPX is supposed to be arriving this week. I'll see what I can come up with this winter. Thanks for the idea.
