Saddlebag recommendation?

I am planning a long trip on my Blur. I would like to get some saddlebags to hold a one man tent, sleeping bag, etc. (I have a rear rack, but I plan to tie a gas can to it).

Can anyone recommend a specific model of bag that will fit on the blur?

Would most any set of bags fit? Are they one size fits all?

thanks
chad

I have never seen a saddlebag that will carry a sleeping bag.
Prima makes some OK ones, but my favorite is the fastrax saddlebag.

They have 2 different sizes and they velcro together on any scooter or motorcycle.

The Great Basin bag from Giant Loop will hold a sleeping bag. With a little work, it will mount on a Blur 220i - I have personally done this.

It doesn't fit quite as they designed it...if you have a rear rack, it will work a LOT better. To me, it's the perfect bag. It's expensive, but totally worth it if you're going to use it for touring/camping. Highly recommend it.

I sold mine when I sold my Kawasaki. I have hard bags on my Beemer so I no longer needed it.
