What if you spray them with that waterproofing stuff?
Just a reminder: those panniers are not waterproof...

Always lusted after one of these only in blue Like the coppertone though , never sen that before. Congrats on the new ride!
It's not the material, it's the accordion mechanism that expands/contracts the bags that lets water in.
what about using that stop leak spray in those areas?
The spray the guy uses for gutters or the bottom of the boat he cut out...lol
I imagine that should offer some sealant...assuming the spray does not damage the material.

Congratulations! That's one sweet bike, love the colour.Well I did it, finally got a bike, and damn near close to what I have wanted, she needs a bit of work, but nothing a few dollars won't cure.....
Looking right now for a new slip on, getting new tires, ordered a new dark windscreen, and trying to figure out what GPS to use, no not the expensive one, I don't ride far and wide, just locally and the odd trip east or west, I have not done much in the way of long distance touring ever, so I have to take it slow.....
anyways a few pics of my girl....
yes the M badging has been removed......
Never seen that colour before. I always see a silver one with yellow wheels around work. he commutes year round. guess it's a good bike.
Is that a custom paint job? My brother has the '05 Bumblebee and I have the '06 Blue/White and the other 2 colours from that gen were silver and blue if I remember correctly.
That is a beautiful bike. Congrats! :thumbup::la:
Enjoy, nice colour combo. The bags are quite small but good for free . Many people switch to givi or other decent waterproof bags...

Hello
Yes, we painted this in 2005 for BMW MOA (Motorcycles Owners of America group) and they gave the bike away at their National Rally in Troy Ohio that summer.The color isn't exactly Daytona Orange - Kent, our painter, wanted to give it a modern interpretation of Daytona Orange so he formulated this color with some spectraflair color shifting pigment added to the silver; the orange was designed to be slightly more transparent. When looking at the silver from different angles you'll see some color play that isn't in the original Daytona silver.Nancy
The bike still looks really good. Hope you enjoy the bike!
