"Do these bags make my bike look FAST?"
Deal's Gap -- Dragon's Tail. Amazing ride. BTW -- I just completed a 4,000 mile trip starting from home in Santa Fe, thru Tennessee, up to Chicago, Kansas and back home through Colorado. The bags worked perfectly and got lots of compliments. -- Mike Rafferty |

OK,
OK, before you get all excited, there were only two bikes in my class.
But it was cool watching all the people at the Western Dakota Tech Car
Show looking at the bike! - Scot

I traded in my 2004 RT for the GS ADV, took delivery in Mid-April, 2006.
The first accessories I added were the Jesse Odyssey side bags in silver.
About a week after I got the bike, I rode out to California and had a custom
saddle made and then I rode the bike out to Washington DC, via Roswell,
New Mexico, Henryetta, Oklahoma, Mammoth Caves, Kentucky, and Cairo, West
Virginia. I spent three weeks in the Washington area, and then earlier
this week I rode back to Arizona via Nashville, Tennessee, and Shamrock,
Texas.
The Jesse bags performed flawlessly through the first month on the bike,
in which I rode about 7000 miles. I found the bags to be roomy, stylish,
well-built, well-designed and engineered, secure, and waterproof. The bracket
system held them securely to the bike. Although I was caught out in a severe
thunderstorm on I-40 traveling through Knoxville, Tennessee, the bags were
absolutely waterproof and protected my possessions, including my business
laptop computer, just perfectly. In my opinion, the Jesse gear should be
standard equipment on the R1200GS Adventure!

49 States:
8,978 miles, 8 Days, 11 hours, 20 mins...and very tired.
Al,
Both me and your bags made the trip.
The bags kept the water, and there was a lot of rain,
on the outside of my things.
The bags look good and work even better.
Thanks

Dear Al and Julie,
Thanks for making such a terrific product -- from the varied conditions of
the Sahara, Arctic Circle, the Australian outback, and Patagonia, to the
spills and thrills of Asia and Latin America, your luggage was the best!
We met numerous other travelers, and ALL were envious of our luggage.
Ride safe, ride far, ride often!

Dear Al and Julie,
What I like best about my Jesse luggage,
besides the rugged good looks and ability to hold the kitchen sink,
is the
added
protection they gave me and my bike. When I was a new rider and learning
to ride on dirt and trails with my GS the bike seemed to like to
fall over...a lot. Thanks to my Jesse bags and engine guards my pride
was
the only thing that received any damage. The Jesse bags made the
bike easier to pick up, too, which is good when your riding partners
are
too busy laughing to help.
Crosby!
Phoenix.

Shiny!
Al & Julie,
Here are my bags. After hitting the bags
with a DA at 180, 220, 320, 400, 600, and some hand wet sanding,
I used
an
electric
polisher
with Mothers mag and al polish.
As you may know it was a lot of work. Never want to do it again. I
know every inch of those bags. In the end, they may be too much like
crome,
although I am sure they will dull soon.
Here are a few quick pics from my phone. You can see me and my phone
in the top of the case.
