Wolfman rack system is spectacular!



Eric,
Here are couple of pictures of my wolfman stuff. I got all of my Wolfman gear from Elite KTM back in March when I got my KTM 690 Enduro. Guy Stevenson and I finally got to go out on a short trip and use it. First off, the rack system is spectacular!!!! Easy to install, low profile, and strong! I would recommend adding to the packaging extra spacers for the top mounts for those not using an upper rack and some 1/2" spacers for the lower attachment point so you don't have to use the enduro footpeg assembly. The Expedition bags are way easy to put on the rack. I really like the ease of use. The duffel is a little bit on the big side for me. If you made an extra small it would be perfect. I've got a lot of extra strap-age to tuck and tie. 3 days or 1 month I take the same gear on my rides. Tank bag and the tool bag are just right and stay of the bike all the time. Do you do anykind of custom prototype stuff?? I could really use a pair of fender bags with the velcro set up used on the tool kit. In the pictures you see I have a fairing on my 690. I would like to put each of my tubes on either side of it on the inside so I can open up a bit of space in my tool kit.
Anyway, great stuff. I'm really happy with my purchase. Hope to see you on the trails.
All my best,
Earlbob

Denver to Deadhorse, Alaska

Hi Eric,
Just wanted to let you know that I just got back from a trip from Denver to Deadhorse, Alaska and back. I used your large expedition tank bag on my VStrom 1000. It worked flawlessly. I know you say it is not "truly waterproof" but it is as close as it gets, short of a zip-lock. It held everything, including a camelbak bladder with the hose hanging out. I never got so much as a drip in the bag. Also, it is very easy to move for fuel ups.

Thanks again for a great product!

Details of Wolfman workmanship




Spirit and I have been on the road for close to 4 years now, full time, north in the summer and south in the winter... East and West, so much to explore and feel from this vast Land of ours. The equipment has to be perfect. It is under the weather elements 27/7. It has to be waterproof... I have to say that we have a gone through a few tank bags, bags period. I think these are it! How can it not? I was so pleasantly surprised at the attention of details and the workmanship. I will let you know how they hold up as time goes on. So far, so great. Be well... Ara & Spirit

Waterproof Wolfman transports to South Sudan




Hi Wolfman,

Just thought you would like to see some pictures of, what i believe, to be the only Wolfman bags in South Sudan. I use the bags for my commuting between Sudan, Uganda and Kenya, but mostly in Sudan. The waterproof bags are great because we get some heavy rain, and often the way is wet and muddy.

Im working in Sudan as a volunteer teacher, and my bike (Honda XR650R) is my only means of transport.

Thanks for a great product.

Regards,
