KTM 890 Adventure (21-25) SHAD 3P Pannier Fitting Kit

Kit arrived very quickly and I have installed it but not yet ridden the bike but I don’t foresee any issues.
I chose SHAD 3P system as from images it looked the least bulky on the bike without panniers but had the reputation for quality & robustness.
Everything arrived packaged well but the powder coating had still suffered little nicks here & there which is one reason for dropping it to 4 stars. The fitting instructions are clear and I’d recommend sorting the bolts by length first as the 25,30,35 mm are easy to mix up as you go. Only the bolt replacing the exhaust mount caused some head scratching as the gap from frame to mounting point is much wider than the 10mm spacer, easily solved by using some spare nyloc nuts but as these were not in the kit it justifies the 4/5 score.

Now fitted the kit is very sturdy and the sh38 panniers lock on securely so I’ve no doubt it’ll do the job well. The frame is still a bulky on the bike but it’s now only 5 bolts to remove it if I’m not using the panniers for a bit.
