Nice review. For me, the best back pack is no back pack. Tiger: I'll use my paniers, or if for some reason I don't want them on the bike, I have a bungie-like net that I can secure a small pack, pair of shoes, water bottle, etc... under. XR650L: Riggs tank bag and the same net on the back if the bike isn't loaded out with soft luggage. When I first started riding, I didn't think wearing a back pack would be a big deal. You know, Army (retired now) inftryman, carry heavy crap on my back all the time, no probelm. After several hours with even just 25-35 lbs on the back while sitting on the motorcycle, it got real old. ...just my $0.02. Nice to you making content again!
I was the same way for a really long time. It just seemed too cumbersome to carry something on my back. Then over this fall when we did the BDRX (video still coming) I had a pack every day and really enjoyed being able to jump off the bike and have everything I needed. At this point it is really just another tool in my kit so to speak. If I take a trip where the bag will help, I’ll wear it. If not, I’ll go back to how I was riding before. And thank you for sticking with us during our extensive downtime.
I just ordered one an hour ago well before I saw your review. I made a good choice buying this bag, exactly what I was looking for. Light, useful and affordable. Going to use it for so many activities, hiking, kayaking, camping, moto touring, going to work, daily needs. It's perfect 😊 Great review 👍
Glad to watch your vids again. I wear the older version of this backpack almost everyday, I have it since 11 years right now, if you think the fabrics are not enough tough, my backpack will prove you wrong. I wear it as hydration backpack in my MTB training, I carry a bladder (doh!), a pocket knife and a small IFAK (Just for booboos and bees, because I'm allergic to those little bastards). It's always covered on dirt, and I bet if I wash it, it will as new again. I love it, it really covers my needs for a short trip, I never felt the need of upgrade it or change it for the newer version. Most of the features you don't what they are for, it's because it's also focused on snowmobile riders, that's why the whistle, because if you were trapped in an avalanche, it takes less effort to blow a whistle than screaming, also, its sound travels further than human voice. Also, the external compartiments are designed to carry shovels, poles and snow rescue probes. I rode my GS wearing it a couple of times, but like someone said before, it's better to ride without one, but also you were right saying that the Nac Pak is more motorcycle oriented than a 5.11 backpack. 👍👍👍👍
@@BeGoneForGood 😄😄😄😄 Hey Chad, have you ever gave a look to my channel? I'm not saying to watch every sh*tty video, but it's mostly about Klim, I've been using their gear since over 10 years ago, when not even you gringos knew they made motorcycle gear, my first suit was an Adventure Rally suit, I sold it 10 years later and it still looked like new, even after few crashes. Then, a couple of years ago, they started to sponsor by giving me a nice discount, I spent some big money, I even bought a 2022 Badlands Pro suit, not sure why they didn't renew the sponsorship. Somehow, good for me, because it was more expensive than being a crackhead‼️😄
I bought this pack last year and love it. I like the way that you don’t carry the weight on your shoulders. *I use that small mesh pocket on the front for my camelback mouth piece. Goggles easily fit in that upper pocket.
Great pack, have one myself, but hate reviewers who give the impression they know about a product when they've never used it and haven't got a clue. Disingenuous. BTW, the hydration tube cleverly routes through the shoulder strap.
I just wanted to be clear because it seems important…are you saying my review is disingenuous because I hadn’t used the product for long? A little later in the video you can see my revelation about the cleverly situated port for the hydration hose. I was impressed.
Dude, your going on and on about the shoulder straps and buckle system, but it looks to me that Klim either collaborated with Kriega or simply knocked them off, I don’t know which, but that’s a Kriega system all day long. Just sayin ✌🏾

Holy cow, Diego...I feel like I need to bring you on as a product specialist next time. Thank you so much for all the extra information.

That’s it!!! That is exactly what that little mesh pocket is for. Thank you for solving that riddle because I could not figure it out at all.
Nice Review! Not to mention less than half the price of Mosko's offering!

Nice, might have to order myself one of these
It’s a great pack.
Is there a waist strap to stop it from flopping? The previous edition had a waist strap.

Good to know...I wonder which came first or who bought what.
For $356.00 id want someone to carry it for me
I’m seeing it for $125-$150 everywhere I’m looking. Where are you seeing such high prices?
