As someone who prefers to camp, avoids pavement at all costs, and who drops my bike at least once a day, these are all extremely important attributes. The Reckless has many desirable traits for my style of adventure riding, but there are some small things to keep in mind.
First, what's new? This latest version offers an additional pivot point during setup to allow the bags to sit comfortably on an enduro bike, the biggest adventure bikes, and everything in between, making it a perfect choice for those of us fortunate enough to have more than one motorcycle in the barn.
True, there are other companies that offer rackless soft luggage, but the Reckless 80 offers impressive capacity and a modular system allowing for customization for everything from a weekend trip to an intercontinental trek.

CHASING PEAKS IN THE HIMALAYAS
It was 2:00 a.m. on my fourth day in India. My eyes blinked open in the dark of a hotel room in Drass, a town in the Himalayas on the Indian side of the border. Yesterday was our first day riding on a six-day trip through the Himalayas, and my brain could not process everything I'd seen and experienced.

MAKING MEMORIES
Kevin and I initially met in the Marines. We have been riding together for a few years, and riding BDRs the entire time. Our first attempt at a BDR was in Utah, where we were completely unprepared and significantly ignorant of our capabilities. It led to some interesting moments conquering Lockhart Basin where we developed our backcountry motto: “Less Gear and More Water.” We document our rides on our YouTube channel, “Be Gone for Good.”
