    Thank you, I ordered a 23 890 advr so really doing my homework as all I know are dirt bikes. Five months watching every video I can. I think I’m gonna start out with the reckless 80 system as I want gear as close to bike and low profile as possible as I’m gonna punish this new bike on technical single track. I’m very impressed how Mosko not only manufacturs but they all ride as well. If more room is needed on more of a pavement/fire road ride I’ll have to figure out if I need bigger panniers. I really do hate when stuff sticks out on both sides. Cross that bridge when I come to it. Thanks again

    Been running the complete Mosko set up for about a year on my Tiger 1200 no worries yet. They are a little more off road focused and lack a little convenience at times but damn they are tough! I just take the bags off and take em inside if I hotel it. When on day trips I run a cap screw through the locking release latch with a nylon lock nut. So no one can just pull them off. Keeps an honest man honest. Interested to see the total comparison. Also, customer service at Mosko is awesome. Great bunch of folks. Great channel found it when I was looking for a new tent last month!

    Man, I remember running away from home and bringing some candy, binoculars, a toothbrush with no toothpaste a blanket and a pair of underwear lol. All stuffed into school book bag. I don’t think kids runaway anymore. It was like a Right of passage when I was a kid. I mean, I was in the woods across the street for 48 hrs and my mom tells me she knew where I was the entire time (perhaps there’s where the extra food that was left for me in the morning came from lol) but I was finally starting to feel like I was growing up. That little comment brought back an amazing memory I hadn’t thought of in several decades.

    Great video review comparison. I have the Mosko's with 2 aux pox's on each bag totaling 40 liters each bag. My buddy has the Lone Rider. Both are great bags. I just think the Mosko's are more durable and a bit better engineered with the beavertails, hydration capability etc.. The inner bag doesn't bother me one bit, I only remove it for cleaning. I always take the entire bags into the hotel, aux pox's attached, everything carries and goes in one shot. It's so much easier than pulling the inner bags, then the aux pox's waterproof bags separate (for me it makes it more complicated). Plus I don't have to worry about overnight theft of the bags from the bike or reattaching cable locks. I guess If you purpose the inner bag for other reasons the LRs may be a better option, but for me, the Mosko's meet all my needs.

    I cannot disagree with anything you said. I bought my second set of these bags and I used them during the 2023 IBR. Just grabbing them you can feel the build quality, the aux pockets are bolted on and that feels secure, BUT. I tried to use them as designed and took the entire bag into my hotel, and that was it. Sold them after my 11 day trip, I just want a removable dry bag with a handle. Since Ive sold off all soft bags Ive been using my hard bags, but with the release of the new Lone Rider top box I may be going back to them....Dave

    I have a set of each. I had the LoneRider bags on my BMW GS Adventure but then went on an extended trip and the Lonerider bags were just to big on the Vstrom 650 I bought to ride from Ushuaia to northern Canada so I bought the Mosko's. In the end I like those better. At the hotel I just lift the whole bag of the bike and take it inside. The bags can really take a beating and even when I was rear ended and the bag got damaged, Mosko has this service of a free repair or a new bag at half price (just the bag). Also if you leave the bags on the bike, the little pouches stay on there or you also have to take those of too every time. My Lonerider bags were replaced once (under warranty) in the beginning as the corners, you were also concerned about, came apart and started leaking. The second set doesn't leak yet (after 4 years of use). In the end, next time I would again choose the MoskoMoto's as they're less wide and I like the sturdiness and versatility. I bought the locks but hardly ever use them (even so I also never lock the LoneRider bags as I take the inner bags inside and there's nothing in there when the bike is left alone) Thanks for your comparison and nice video.

    Thanks for your report...I just used the MOSKO bags on my 11 day IBR ride and sold them upon return, Im sticking with hard bags. I agree that the quality of them is great, and I love the pockets, but going into a hotel was terrible. I once took the entire pannier, that just seemed awkward, the next trip I tried using just the inner liner bag, with no handle, it just didn't work for me. I had the Lone Rider bags and had an issue with them fading, and one started leaking, the other concern was the strength of their pockets, the straps are just too small. For me, rally riding and touring its hard bags for the win...Dave

    It’s a tough choice between the two. I wanted to support Mosko because they’re local to where I live, but ultimately went with Lone Rider for the extra capacity (which means I end up taking more stuff then I need!). One thing to keep in mind is that the Mosko bag itself is 30 liters, and then you add one pocket to get 35 liters. Whereas, the Lone Rider bag is 38 without any pockets. I’m looking forward to seeing your further comparisons.

    In my honest opinion, the 48L bag is too big for the top of any pannier, but I have used the 30L on top of the Lone Rider panniers many times. The only thing is they use that G hook on the front so securing them on the Lone rider bags is easy enough, but onto of the OEM panniers requires you to make a G hook strap, and connect the opposite end too the Pannier. On the normal Lone Rider strap has a buckle, does that make sense? Dave

    Thanks for the video. I’m deciding between these two bags myself. Maybe Giant Loop as well. One thing I’ve noticed - the LR bags appear to be significantly heavier than the MM. Did you notice any weight difference? The MM seem a little easier to set up initially. I don’t have a new GS, so I’d have to adjust the LR quick release plate to use it. Thanks again.

    I’ve got the Mosko son my Africa Twin. They are great, very very tough, a bit slimmer, the beaver tail is actually really useful. The quick release system is easily lockable or easily taken into a motel or hotel. Don’t bother taking the inner bag out, just take the whole thing.

    Been using the BMW branded Atacama kit for the past 5 years, which I'm told is actually Mosko, it's bombproof, light, super easy on & off, actually waterproof, my only complaint is that they're slightly too small for my use (camera gear in Hazard 4 padded semi-rigid sling bag). Apart from that, top notch gear.

    Great comparison! I have the Moskos, but was really eyeing the LRs. A couple of observations: - the Moskos are so easy to take off, I'm talking 5secs, that you'll never bother taking the inner bags out - the 4L Mosko aux pox are nice for stuff you want to quickly jam in there - at 30L they are smaller than LR or aluminum cans; my thinking is I need to carry less shit for off road - my Fiskars hatchet fits great in the loop under the beaver tail - the Survivewear waterproof first aid kit fits nicely on the molle straps in place of the aux pox

    Dave, I use both as well. I like both. You’re right that the bag system on the Moskomoto is not user friendly. I ended up taking the whole bag into the hotel rather than removing the inner. I never thought about using a different inner bag, I have a set of BMW inner bags for the hard cases, I’m gonna try that. The Lonerider, are easier to pack, because of the more rigid design, and yes the molle on top is backward in my opinion! I wonder, how much weight the 5litre Lonerider bags can handle, and will it cause the main Lonerider bag to distort, with too much weight in the 5 litre bags?

    So with you saying you need space, I immediately think you need the Lone Rider bags, you can opt them with 2 38L bags and you have space, that was the option I chose. As far as mounting them, I had the quick release option and it clips, so to speak, onto the OEM pannier rack. Quick and simple. If you chose the MOSKO MOTO route, they have an adapter, my descriptive word that bolts to the OEM pannier rack and that allows the pannier to mount to them, again easy process. Dave

    The Lone Rider is way more secure to leave on your bike. I'm talking about the new locking quick release of the Lone Rider. The locking mechanism on the Lone Rider in terms of how it secures to the bike is massively superior to the Mosko Moto bags. I wouldn't leave the Mosko Moto bags on my bike, even with the cable lock, which can easily be cut within seconds. I like the Mosko Moto bags otherwise.
