On big trips I now run the trail seat bag the fuel caddy with the 40 litre dry bag stacked on top (clothing only) and the 19+3 bag on the back. 70+ litres total 80+ if you include the glove box extension. That 40 litre dry bag is so good it eliminated the combo seat bag for me. Far easier to get on and off the sled and that dry bag is so easy to take off. Great content 👍
Thanks David! I'm loving that 40L dry bag as well but the combo bag also is a great bag. They are all so good - I guess thats why we have them all! Cheers, Mike
Got the 30L Combo wide body bag for longer trips last year.
Worked very well. Took a day or two to get used to it & adjust it slightly further back…..felt like I had a passenger on the back at 1st. 6’3” & it would bump up against my lower back until I got it tweaked perfectly.
Old school here….I still wrap the lid on new unopened 1L & 4L oil bottles with a layer of duct tape.
Yeah it's definitely a great bag for those saddle bag trips. Good tip with the duct tape 👌. Cheers, Mike
Combo bag for widebody is awesome! Takes a high leg kick to get onto machine. What you didn't mention is that the Combo bag being high and tight to your butt, keeps it warm and dry from snow dust.
Yes it certainly does lol. That's a great point -I didn't think of that! Cheers, Jesse
For long saddlebag trips the 62L Cargo Box is fantastic and you can stack the oil caddy, or another bag on top. My normal go to bags are the trail pro bag, and the sport bag.
Great explanation of all the bags, I'm definitely picking up the 40L bag.
Thanks bud. Ya that dry bag is sweet. Cheers, Jesse
I’ve had the link Dry Bag for 3 years now and LOVE it
Yup, its a winner for sure. Probably the best one yet and I can see it lasting a long time, as that material is quite durable. Only real concern is the straps so hopefully they last. Cheers buddy, Mike
I'm trying to select the accessories for my newly delivered Renegade and your review really helped me narrow it down. Thanks guys...now I just need to get over the sticker shock 😲
Thanks Dan! Glad the video was useful for you. Ya the sticker shock will always be there - pretty hard to get used to lol. Cheers, Jesse
Another great video guys! I'm a big fan of that 40L dry bag, its so versatile and only uses one Linq spot! Keep those videos coming!
Thanks Kevin! Glad you enjoyed it. Ya that dry bag is sweet - it holds so much, it can hold enough clothes for 1 guy for 8 days. Just nuts - and 100% agreed on the linq slots, it leaves room for all my other crap lol. Stay tuned for lots of content as we approach the season and throughout it. Cheers, Mike
Oil jugs-Sealed or not - you need to tape those lids closed otherwise IT WILL happen again eventually.
I did learn that the hard way lol. Especially how I ride haha. Cheers, Jesse
I had an idea to vac pack a bunch of quarts, when you need them just use your pocket knives and cut it open. Even if there is a leak, the bag will seal the oil in and no spills
I got the 41 Litre linq bag for my TCAT the thing is a beast you can check it out on our Mount Valin trip!
Can't wait brother! Looking forward to it. Cheers, Jesse
Thanks! Great vid. I'd like to have seen the fitment on the sled as well.
That's a good point. We didn't think of that. Take a look at our saddle bag trips videos the past two years and you will get to see most if not all of the bags on the sled. Cheers, Jesse
@@sledaddicz Thanks I'll check those pics out. I have a Gen3 and I'm trying to figure out what combination I can get to fit my sled. Your video was informative. I'll have to make sure the bag(s) I'm interested in fits my chassis.
@@marceltheriault9222I know what you mean when you say gen3 but you really mean rev xs. Just look up the part #s I showed in the video and see if they are compatible with the xs platform. My guess is that all bags are compatible except the combo bags and trail seat bag. Cheer, Jesse.
@@sledaddicz You're correct XS, thanks. I'm still in the learning curve trying to ID my sled with those terms (Body style/ platforms date ranges...etc). Thanks for the tip. (2014 Renegade Adrenaline 900Ace)
Great video guys! That 30L bag looks sweet, never seen it before.
Thanks Vince! Glad you enjoyed it. The combo bag is one of our favourites! Cheers, Jesse
Great video! I appreciate the overview of the options. Thought in the oil caddy? Is there a reason you don’t run that option?
Thanks brother. Glad you liked the video. That's a great question! Mike did have the oil caddy for a season. The reason we don't use it is because it only holds 4L of oil and it takes up one whole linq slot. We are better off running the combo bag which can hold 8-12 L of oil (2-3 4L jugs) that way we can carry the oil we need for a 4 day trip. Cheers, Jesse
@@sledaddicz great! Thanks for the reply. Safe travels this season!
Great video and thanks for posting. Are you carrying oil for more than yourself? I just bought a new to me Renegade X with the 850. Switched from a ZR7000. How much oil will you put through an 850 typically on a “say” 1600-1800 km ride? I was thinking oil caddy and buy more if needed at dealerships throughout Quebec. But you tell me you’re the experts. Thanks.
I really like the sport bag too. Bottom is covered with safety gear and lots of rooms for snacks and spare mitts, hat, etc.
Do you ever ride with a backpack? For my backcountry rides or ice fishing I always carry the pack because even a modest size easily holds 40L. Bonus is that you look cool like the mountain riders.
Hey Jon! I have thought about a backpack but I would rather not unless I really need to. With the LinQ accessories I have for my sled, I have more then enough room to pile in all the stuff I need for 4 days away from the truck. Given that we are riding pretty hard from sunrise till after sunset (last year our average was 400kms a day and my longest day was 833kms) I want to save my back as much as possible. If I went on a 6+ day trip I would definitely wear a pack for the extra room. Cheers, Jesse
Great video
Thanks!
Thanks for the video need to add a bag for my drone this year you guys helped 🤙
Glad it was helpful Mike! We appreciate you watching and we are glad you are enjoying the content! Which bag did you pick? Cheers, Jesse
I think I’m gonna go for the 41 L bag
@@mikeguliz the 40L dry bag? That's an unreal bag! You will love it. The whole kitchen sink fits in it
I never seen that one before until I seen your video gotta go see if I can find one up in Barrie😂
@@mikeguliz tell the boys and girls at St Onge I say hi!
My SR21 bag came with a handle on the side opposite the quick buckle.
Yup ours have it too. For some reason I guess we missed it in the video lol. Cheers, Jesse
I bought the 21 liter bag because of its looks..
Haha ya it does look pretty sleek! Cheers, Jesse
They should have a trail seat bag for the 4 strokes too! ☃️👍👍
Agreed! Not sure why they don't ... Cheers, Mike
Cause the seat itself has storage
Hey guys, love your channel. Its clear and concise. I just purchased a 2023 vr1 137 what is the best set up for a long ride.
Also, I got my dad the leds from motojungle for the gen4. They are brighter than my vr1 boost. So insane!!
Thanks brother. We really appreciate your support and glad you are enjoying the content. Oooo you will love that VR1 - its an absolute weapon! Ya those lights are sweet too! For a long ride, I would definitely get a set of south simcoe machine linq brackets (here is the link for your 137 to give you two linq slots: southsimcoemachine.com/collections/snowmobile/products/polaris-linq-adaptor-double-plate). When you say long ride do you mean a long day or multi day saddlebag? For day rides, I would get a LinQ Sport Bag 17L (shop.ski-doo.com/us/en/860202447-linq-sport-bag-17l.html). For multi day rides use the sport bag, plus get a stackable fuel caddy (shop.ski-doo.com/us/en/860202246-linq-stackable-fuel-caddy-4-gallons.html) and the LinQ 40L Dry bag (skidoooutlet.com/2021-brp-linq-dry-bag-40-l-715002875). Let me know if you have any other questions. Hope this helps! Cheers, Jesse
try the10L box under your gas can it offers a Decent amount of storage for the emergency equipment I carry. and doesn't raise stuff up very much. also maybe a good video to do would be what you guts carry for emergency equipment on saddlebaging trips. I can give you my list if interested.
Have a look at this video where I talk about the top 5 things I carry for emergency equipment in my bag. I carry more but these are the main things everyone should have in my opinion. czcams.com/video/jNnz_U0i4Mc/video.html Cheers, Mike
What`s your thought about a backpack on trips for carrying light stuff, have any of your group used one. I was thinking about one but wondered about fatigue.
I think it depends on how long you are riding for and what you are intending to carry in them. I used backpacks way back in the day but any sort of weight in them and its noticeably uncomfortable. I also think it can restrict movement but again, its dependant on what you are intending to carry. The Linq backpack could be a nice option because if it doesn't work well on your back, or you get tired, you can always attach it to the sled. Hope this helps. Mike
@@sledaddicz Thanks it would be less then 2-3 lbs, socks, T shirts, base layers etc I`ve seen a nice compact slim one I was thinking of buying to give me that extra space as I have the MXZ .
Buy a ATW industries rack that mounts into the linq holes. Then strap anything you want to you sled. Done.
Why would I want to strap anything? This is a much cleaner system and has everything we could need and more. Cheers, Jesse
Will the trail pro bag fit behind the gas caddie?
Yes it does. You need to really push down on it to get it to click in and it will go on with the fuel caddy. I ran it like that all season last year for 13,000 kms. Cheers, Jesse
Hey Guys. With that 40l dry bag will that only fit in position 1 alone? I can’t seem to get it to fit behind my stackable gas caddy.
Hey man. We always run that bag in position 1 on top of our fuel caddy. It will fit in position 2 but likely not with the gas caddy right in front of it. Cheers, Jesse
@@sledaddicz odd mine doesn’t fit. It sits on top of the fuel nozzle and won’t lock into the bracket. Thanks for the feedback.
Hey guys, just curious why you say the Trail Seat Bag won't work on a Gen 4 wide chassis? I just switched my seat and battery cover from a narrow G4 (XRS) to my wide G4 (X) to accommodate this bag and everything seems to fit. Did I miss something? Obviously it's summer and I haven't ridden with it, so just curious if you know something I don't about the seat/bag. Thanks!
Hey Sylvain. The trail seat bag is not compatible with the wide body g4 because of the seat and battery cover. The trail seat bag only works with the narrow seat and narrow battery cover so for sure if you switch both onto a wide body the bag will still work. Cheers, Jesse
too bad u dont have a camera guy. close up shots would have been nice. cant really see any of them from that distance. too bad
Yup agreed! We could have gotten b roll of each bag to throw in the video but we just didn't have time. Recorded 5 vids that day as Mike is in kitchener and I was in toronto so we get a bunch done at once. Cheers, Jesse
May I politely ask how the hell you use so much oil?
We put on a lot of miles! 13,000 kms on my sled just last season. Usually in a 400km day I go through a full 4L jug due to the pace we ride at. Cheers, Jesse
@@sledaddicz Impressive! I wish I had enough weekends here to match those kind of k's in a season.
Well done video for the most parts.
Showing close up's of each bag and how it fits on the sled would of been beneficial.
Also, a bit of constructive criticism for Jesse. Brother man, please learn how to listen to your co-host's as they talk or answer questions instead of talking over them and/or constantly cutting them off ALL the time.
Not the first time I've seen this out of you and from a viewers perspective, it gets very annoying.
I appreciate the feedback! We recorded this video last season as we were wrapping up but close ups of the bags would have definitely added to it. And yes - my apologies on the interrupting, I am trying not to do that anymore. Cheers, Jesse
Great content as usual but somebody needs to teach Jesse not to up-speak. Really difficult to listen to.
Thanks. He's working on the up-talk thing.... Cheers, Mike
