I have them 3 months now and I am very satisfied with them.Perfect price and quality versus oem.I also have the sh58x top case.I think these are the only ones that fit so nicely to the appearance of the bike.
Hi Andy. Thank you for your video, always great. I opted for Shad luggage for my Versys 2015 instead of Kawasaki's. So, it's been 9 years (I don't like changing bikes much, especially when it suits me well) that I've been using these cases with the 48-liter top case. I've gone from scorching heat to rain to hail... and I've never had a single drop of water inside. The set is sturdy and durable. So much so that my son steals them to put on his bike when he goes for a ride. You made an excellent choice, much cheaper than the Kawasaki set. Like you, I regret the color; my bike is orange... but I'm going to steal your idea. Safe travels.
thanks for this comment, I was a bit worried that these cases would leak, that little seal inside doesn't look trustworthy. But since you've been using it for 9 years and it's always been dry, it calmed me down a bit. Thanks
Witam. Przypadkowo trafiłem na Twój kanał i bardzo się z tego cieszę. Mnóstwo rzeczy można się dowiedzieć na temat Versysa 1000. Super, jak można poznać właśnie ten model zwłaszcza że za jakieś dwa, trzy tygodnie odbieram swoją nówkę sztukę. Jestem już pełen ekscytacji jak ten sprzęt będzie się sprawował, docieranie, pierwsza wyprawa wreszcie z kuframi gdzieś dalej np. nad Bałtyk bo jestem z Opolszczyzny. Życzę dużo ciekawych wypraw, tyle wyjazdów i powrotów. Pozdrawiam.
Nice video Andy. I was running these very same panniers for 3 years on my NC750, before I upgraded to Versys 1000. Nice and waterproof panniers. Not a single drop of a water inside and i was riding in torrential rain in Germany for 8h. BUT, i couldn't get in my modular helmet, while in the Versys OEM panniers, helmet fit nicely. And for my travel 28l x 2 is ok as well. Regards
Hi, thanks 🙂 Today I will be recording new material in the garage about SHAD cases because there are many questions about it, so I will definitely record whether a helmet can fit there. I was considering SH36 cases, but SH35 are visually nicer in my opinion and fit the motorcycle better, 1 liter of capacity will not make much of a difference. Take care.
Good video, wish it had been posted a few weeks ago before I purchased my Versys, I would have considered buying a bike without the cases and doing this. But for now I will see how we get on with the Kawasaki cases, we are going on our first tour on the Versys in a few days time.
I also wish someone had made a video like this sooner, and for the same reasons. You can always buy shad or other cases and put the originals in the closet and wait for the motorcycle to be sold, then you will have a motorcycle for sale with brand new cases. Or you can just sell them, there will definitely be a buyer. Take care..
Looks good considering that's the first time you've used vinyl wrap. It's harder than it looks, the key is working it carefully with heat and stretching over the curves, but it's very tricky across multiple curves. Even the pro's hate working on motorbike fairings as the curves are so much more complicated than car bodies, but those little panels came up nicely :)
Zajebista robota 💪😉 Też mam problem ze znalezieniem odpowiednich kufrów, zastanawiałem się właśnie nad tymi,a Ty skutecznie mnie do nich przekonałeś😊 Wielkie dzięki za film,jak zwykle pełna profeska 👌💪😉 Pozdrawiam serdecznie 😉
Dzięki, jeszcze ich dokładnie nie przetestowałem, zrobiłem tylko kilka jazd próbnych, jak Ci się nie spieszy to poczekaj do sierpnia wtedy będę po wyjeździe to będę mógł powiedzieć coś więcej o ich użytkowaniu. Z drugiej strony jak przejrzysz komentarze poniżej ktoś pisał że używa tych kufrów od 9 lat i nigdy nie miał kropli wody w środku, więc o czyms to świadczy. Trzym się
Hello, first of all thanks for great and useful content. Can I ask what is purpose of that fur coat on saddle? Is it just warmer or even more comfy and soft?
I agree 100pc, the oem side cases put style before function, and I don't find it as easy to put them on and off as they're supposed to be. That solution looks strong and looks just as good imho. Decent colour match from the green film too...I'd be happy with that Andy 👍
Thanks Paul, but I think you know me well enough to know that if the color doesn't match, I can't sleep;-).... But seriously, it turns out that the cover of the top case doesn't match the color of the motorcycle either, it's much darker , so one fine day I will repaint all three elements and then I will be able to sleep peacefully. Cheers...
Allo MotoAndy I own a Versys like yours and I'm agredd with you about the Kawasaki luggage.. to replace them i choosed GIVI Alaska Trekker 36 lt for each side and back I choosed a Outback 58 liters. You can see the on my you tube channel 😀. Of course I bought alos the inners bags which are waterproof.
It is looking good and I`m sure it is handy when you travel with passanger, just for me it`s to much place to keep to much junk, if you know what I mean. Be safe my friend
I also remade Shad brackets but more radical than you. That part which is connected with pegs I cut down to change all the bottom part to put the original decorative plates back. It was necessary to connect everything again with two bolts like it is in orignal.
Como a Versys não é uma GS, é um pouco mais estilo do que substância. Eles são certamente espaçosos, mas não acho que caberiam nesta motocicleta. Cumprimentos
Hi Andy, I got the 36 serie, there is 3 years : great. A question about your seat : how are you cleaning it? Simple soap I suppose, and then ... to protect and feeling it, how do you do please? BR Michel
I don't do anything special with my seat, when I wash my bike I also wash the seat with the same shampoo. Besides that I usually have my roadkill on my seat ua-cam.com/video/6bVDWBLkfpw/v-deo.html
Hi Andy, Excellent video! You didn't mention price (or I missed it?) for the Shad panniers. I know it depends on where you purchase them, but a conversion is available. Also, Could you maybe show the Big Versys with just the racks so we can see what it looks like without the panniers?
Hi, thanks. I didn't mention the price because I bought these cases about 10 months ago and they sat for quite a long time before I installed them. At that time (september 2023) I paid €295 for the SH35 cases set, plus 3P frames (each motorcycle has a different model) for €120 set and inner bags for €20 each, so the entire set was €455. The video shows what the frame looks like without a case (15:30), but if you really care about it, I will make a "shorts" vid this weekend and show the naked Versys with frames. take care.
@@MotoAndy Thanks! No need for the "short" unless you have nothing better to do. I was just curious, as I always ride without my panniers unless I'm traveling.
Hi Andy. The panniers look ok but i think maybe a bit too much green, certainly from behind, maybe put some country flags on the green on the back of the pannier like you have on the kawaski ones. It would break the green up a bit, but i think painting them with the correct kawasaki colour would be better. I have the standard ones on mine but with bigger bags that fill the whole pannier. I keep thinking about fitting some top loading panniers on mine, i find loading them easier from the top but i only use the panniers for holidays so i dont like having the metal brackets fitted all the time.
siemka, nie, nie rozważałem tych kufrów z jednego powodu, czy większy kufer tym więcej gratów, a uwierz mi w 35 litrach jest już za dużo. SH38X mają jednak swoją zaletą a mianowicie są prawie że prostokątne w środku co dodatkowo zwiększa ich atrakcyjność. Co do wyglądu to nie wiem czy Versys jest odpowiednim kandydatem to tych kufrów. Pozdrawiam.
Deshalb habe ich meine orginalen Seitenkoffer auch verkauft . Sehen gut aus mehr aber auch nicht . Habe jetzt die von SW Motech und bin sehr zufrieden.
I like the oem hanging solution.. But the oem cases are not practical... But they are the same width like the bars so if bars will fit the whole bike will... Once you will forget about the width and you got a problem 🙆♂️
Hi, Shad cases are only 3cm wider, i.e. 1.5cm per side, I don't think it makes much of a difference. I will measure everything again carefully this weekend. Take care
Why don’t you go to an auto painter they Can find the exact color for your side panels. The paint code must be somewere on the bike. Can,t cost a lot to be done. Greetings from Denmark
Hi, because I can do it myself, ua-cam.com/video/8NAJPCY4Ai8/v-deo.html I already have the paint, what I don't have is time. I don't know about Denmark but in NL painting motorcycles is quite expensive. Take care

Thank you, another great video, I'm just waiting for my Shad cases to arrive.
Great job Andy! No more words! You nailed it! ... even if the color is not that close of the original one from Kawasaki!
Thanks 👊

Hi Andy, do you know why 3p carrier can't fit sh23 on Versys?
Hi, it should, on the SHAD website "Compatible with 3P SYSTEM (patented)." stated.
Deshalb habe ich meine orginalen Seitenkoffer auch verkauft . Sehen gut aus mehr aber auch nicht . Habe jetzt die von SW Motech und bin sehr zufrieden.
Witaj. Czy mógłbyś napisać o ile Versys z kuframi Shad jest szerszy od oryginalnych? Z góry Ci dziękuję i pozdrawiam
Siemka, kufry SHAD są całe 3 cm szersze, tzn, całkowity wymiar jest bodajże 103cm, OEM kufry są 100cm
I guess you can't change the locks to use the same key as the rest of the bike?
Unfortunately no, but believe me I tried 😉the locks for SHAD are a bit bigger, so unfortunately an extra key in your pocket.🫤

shad is a total of 3 cm wider than the original Kawasaki cases
