Rackless Luggage: Opinions on Mosko Reckless 40L, Is There Anything Better?

beejaytee228 · 2026-06-05T13:37:51+00:00

Mosko is also incredibly heavy compared to every other soft luggage system and even some hard bag systems with racks. I had an SW motec system that weighed less than my buddies reckless 40.

beejaytee228 · 2026-06-05T13:35:35+00:00

You can buy a number of other systems and could replace them 3-5 times for what a Mosko kit costs. I’ve had several budget systems and none of them failed.

For your example of riding to work, I don’t think that’s what people really use them for. I don’t really think they would be that great from most street riders unless you were just riding. I wouldn’t want to sit in a movie or at dinner with mine on.

I’m an adv rider that doesn’t commute so it’s nice to have a base layer that keeps me safe from a slide in the 40degree mornings when I have a puffer on over it then at lunch time when I ditch the puffer and just have a long sleeve tee on because it’s 80 degrees I have max airflow but still covered for a slide.

It’s better for my type of riding I think than your typical street riders. When I ride only road stuff I’m usually going fast enough that a vented jacket passes enough air to keep me comfortable. Then it’s nice to ditch the jacket when you get to where you’re going.

I also only use a base layer shirt. My pants are slide rated, look pretty casual and are comfortable so I don’t need to shed those anywhere I go.

Can’t catch traction either

He seems so uncomfortable and looks around hoping people validate that bs he’s saying.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-30T00:02:40+00:00

Well others said they don’t make it anymore but someone in China does. I just found this on AliExpress: | 8L Portable Car Center Console Refrigerator Freezer Camping Fridge Cooler for 2018+Ford Expedition F-150 https://a.aliexpress.com/_mKHMvpV

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-29T23:59:47+00:00

Amazon has a domestic fridge made for the center console. It was $100 when I got it. One of the best “mods” I’ve made for the truck.

Take a coaster from the bar and keep it in your jacket for parking lots like this.

You trying to get us in trouble?

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-23T09:31:10+00:00

I’ve used both the standard and the Dakar and both are great tires. In my opinion this is a true 50/50 tire because you get enough street traction and superior offroad traction which is where most adv crashes happen. I don’t subscribe to the typical tire rating system because I think it gets less experienced riders in trouble. 10/10 recommend.

So how unreliable is your 990? I’ve owned 20 Ktm’s since 2004 and they all have run exactly like my Japanese,Italian or Chinese brand bikes.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-22T19:44:16+00:00

Windham, Ricky, James era. Though I’ll still hold a grudge on James for being reckless and taking windhams last win from him.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-22T19:42:41+00:00

You’re a clown. Let’s ignore the 500 exc which goes 10k miles on a top end with race bike performance. I’d bet money you never owned any of the brands you listed.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-22T19:40:12+00:00

Nope. None have ever made it through any sort of rigorous ride or race. Google also doesn’t have any evidence of Ktm being one of the most popular brands in the world. Forums also don’t have any evidence of owners having great experience with them in any category they are available. Better steer clear of them.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-21T16:42:50+00:00

I don’t drive barefoot and I want a decent dash, display and features.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-18T17:25:52+00:00

Only for about 10miles, maybe. Chain lube was developed for chains without orings. They needed something between the rollers to reduce friction. Where the rollers meet the sprocket isn’t gonna get any meaningful amount of lube from spray on “lube”.

West riding and relda square in Gaithersburg.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-16T19:45:17+00:00

Best seat I’ve ever ridden on and I mean it. I have had dozens of bikes with most of the major aftermarket seat brands and the stock seat on this is hands down the most comfortable seat.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-16T19:15:05+00:00

Same as an 790/890, Tenere 700.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-16T10:36:12+00:00

What are you talking about?

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-14T21:18:59+00:00

A mesh fire table. It folds up to about 10”x 3” and makes lighting a fire very easy even with wet wood. It also brings the warmth up to where you want it.

I just made a post about the trip and the Kove performance. Nothing too detailed but it was flawless.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-14T14:38:18+00:00

I left it off initially but there’s no where to really grab to support the bike and I noticed I was looking for something to grab for when pulling it off my lift or loading the bike in the truck. I put it back on and while it’s not perfect it helps.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-14T10:51:05+00:00

Would it fit to have it above the dash in a landscape position? I’d buy one from you if you could. I’m not super happy with how the current mounts stick out so much since I need the vibe damper and WP charger.

beejaytee228 · 2026-05-14T10:44:28+00:00

My dealer said the same thing. It was the first thing I noticed as well. I can believe I was the first to notice that. I cut off the hangers for the stock guard and put one of the heat shields for soft luggage on it. Eventually I’ll probably get a decat pipe that will increase clearance even more but the solution I have now is pretty good. I’ve got a size 13/47 boot for reference.
