I've got the standard hard luggage so mot personally. However I'm watching the second season of Itchy Boots on YouTube and she is using these soft panniers and tank bag which seem to be holding up well.

Mosko gear always gets really good reviews on any off road forum/article.
Also check out "Enduristan" and "Adventure Spec" for soft luggage

Looks simialr to the Givi
GRT709
bags.
I have these used a couple of times. Seem perfectly OK for my tame "adventures". No idea how they'd hold up to harsher conditions, but I see no reason why they'd perform poorly. I originally had them fitted to my CB500XA, they almost (a few mm short) sat on the exhaust without any issue.

Bit on the pricey side for me...have a look at lomo bags? Good reviews, waterproof (and cheaper!)

I recently discovered Lomo and I'm on the point of ordering some crash bar bags.
Given that their main markets are water sports, you would think they know how to design waterproof bags.... I'll soon find out.

@ KoD
They are held on with supplied straps which are sufficient but I've also secured them even more with cable ties.

I went for the budget utilitarian option.
Mainly for waterproofs and the mess tin with stove in the other.
