pseudofed Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I got the Yamaha bags with my bike. The outside of the bags are extremely rough. No matter what I try to wipe them with it leaves bits of the towel or whatever. Any idea why they are this way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldenPenguin Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 They might be more resistant to actual scratches? It really bugs me though, every time I see a mark I try and wipe it and it just smears it around like a carpet stain or something. It will clear up at the next wash though.

Premium Member wessie Posted December 13, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted December 13, 2015 Lots of the Givi panniers are textured like my trusty E45 - my new Kappa panniers are smooth. I think the textured E45 which is >15 years old will look better than the Kappas when they are that age. The shiny, smooth surface will show everyday knocks more than the textured surface. This signature is left blank as the poster writes enough pretentious bollocks as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
