G'day,
How weatherproof are the saddlebag on the 2014+ RT?
Are liners a worthwhile investment for protection? Any recommendations for a decent liner bag?
Thanks,
Ski

I have had a number of Cee Bailey's products and like their stuff quite a bit. The only issue I have with their liners for the RTW is that the bags are (from what I recall) straight up and down on the sides....Cee Baily ... may be another consideration. https://www.ceebaileys.com/bmw-k-1200-gt-2006-up-motorcycle-saddle-bag-liners

Don't know about the others, but the Kathy's top-case liners also come with a shoulder strap and ones are available for the side bag liners for $8 IIRC.The over-the-shoulder straps on the BMW liners are pretty handy ... something I think you don't get with the budget brands...
Quite true, and for some that's a plus, for others it's a minus. That's why I suggested that one look at all three of the brands I could quickly think of and make their own decision. Each of us typically has slightly different needs, wants and desires and it is rare that one-size-fits-all applies....The BMW liners retain a fixed shape ... the shape of (most?) budget brand liners is determined by what you stuff them with, as they are flimsy/floppy.
Its interesting, but I've never worried about my hard cases leaking in the rain. Modern bikes seem to have this all sorted out. No?
