The G_Dakar Aquatech adventure-touring boots
from Gaerne are lined with breathable, waterproof
membranes for all-weather riding. They feature
tessellated tread on the soles for grip on all
types of terrain, from asphalt to dirt. Inside, the
wraparound ankle pivot system offers lateral
support that is designed to still allow for natural
movement. The boots have PU-injected front shin
plates that are anatomically shaped, and the heels
have extra reinforcements. They have suede-
leather panels to protect from engine heat, and
they secure on with replaceable buckles and wide
Velcro closure straps.

The TR30 Terra Adventure saddlebags from Shad have a capacity of
30 liters each and can hold up to 13 pounds per bag. The waterproof
(IPX6-rated) saddlebags have roll-top closures in addition to
waterproof inner bags. There are eight reinforced tie-down spots
per bag, and each has six cambuckles for cinching down the bags
when they are not full. All the strap ends have closures to prevent
them from flapping in the wind, and the integrated carry handles are
padded. They use Shad's double-locking system to secure them to
Shad's 4P side-case racks (sold separately).
