    Hey all!

    Does anyone know how strong the old styles subframe is on 450/501? A friend of mine would like to adventurize his bike and now we are looking for luggage options for weekend stealrh camping.

    Option 1: GL Mojave or Wolfman E13 or Enduristan Blizzard L for light stuff and a backpack for heavier items

    Option 2: GL Coyote or similar to carry everything for camping (tent, cook kit, clothes...)

    How many of you have adventurised those bikes an what have you done to them?

    Thanks!

    Keep in mind that it's a light weight, high-performance dirt bike with a license plate, and isn't really designed to carry cargo.

    That said, I'd recommend the smallest bags you can tolerate. Bigger bags just means you're gonna take more crap that you don't need.

    Coyote is prolly the biggest bag I'd recommend, and I'd advise to put the heavier items in the bottom so that they're the farthest forward.
