More Adventure With Ventura Luggage
New Zealand luggage specialists Ventura offer adventure bike riders an alternative to the aluminium ‘boxes’ commonly associated with these machines.
Combining the best features of hard and soft luggage, Ventura’s unique ‘slide on/ride off’ luggage mounting system adds no extra width to the bike, is much lighter than hard cases and will not affect the machine’s handling or performance.
Two new additions to the range are kits to fit the 2013 models of the BMW R1200GS and KTM 1190 Adventure. The Ventura Bike-Pack luggage system consists of three, easy to fit elements: L-Brackets, Rack and Pack. The L-brackets are bolted to the bike using existing mounting points and the Pack Rack slides into the brackets, secured by two locking devices . Then Ventura’s specially designed soft luggage packs slide onto the rack, held firmly in place by QL clips.
When riding solo the pack sits over the pillion seat and when carrying a passenger the bag sits on the rack. Lighter than hard luggage and more stable than soft luggage, Ventura Bike Pack Systems provide huge carrying capability and both pack and rack can be removed/replaced quickly and easily.
A complete system for the BMW R1200GS or KT 1190 Adventure, including L-Brackets, Pack Rack and 47-litre Mistral Pack (as pictured), costs £329- including VAT. For further details and a full list of fitments and pack options, call 01256 704909 or visit www.ventura-bike.co.uk.
