Warning
The Expedition Aluminum Panniers are
designed to be mounted as a pair.
Never ride the motorcycle with only
one pannier installed.
Riding the motorcycle with one pannier
installed may cause the motorcycle to
become unstable leading to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Warning
After mounting or removing the
panniers, operate the motorcycle in a
safe area free from traffic to gain
familiarity with the new handling
characteristics.
Operation when not familiar with the
new characteristics of the motorcycle
may result in loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
Warning
Incorrect loading may result in an
unsafe riding condition leading to loss
of motorcycle control and an accident.
Always make sure that any loads
carried are evenly distributed on both
sides of the motorcycle. Make sure
that the load is correctly secured such
that it will not move around while the
motorcycle is in motion.
Evenly distribute the load within each
pannier. Pack heavy items at the
bottom and on the inboard side of the
pannier.
Always check the load security
regularly (though not while the
motorcycle is in motion) and make sure
that the load does not extend beyond
the rear of the motorcycle. Never
exceed the maximum vehicle loading

Tiger 1200 XR - 507 lb (230 kg)

This maximum loading weight is made
up from the combined weight of the

installed and any load carried.
