+1 to that. been using it for years to hide the smell of smoking in the car!Ozium is pretty good odor killer....
Mine fortunately didn't come with any chemical odor.4 months later I still have the chemical smell. I have stuffed dryer sheets inside as well as the Febreze soak newspaper. It has helped but not a lot.
I ordered liners from Bestem & I also found that the 2 liners were different sizes; the left side fit well but the right side was noticeably smaller; I contacted Bestem & they were helpful (I was OK w/ a partial refund)
I will be using them for the first time next week and I hope everything goes well; I am headed on a long trip and rain will surely come (it's already in the forecast); I read in another forum that someone used a backpack as a saddlebag liner (it had the same shape as the saddlebag)
I bought mine from a former member and like some of the rest of you, they're not the same size. Nicely made though and work very nice.I have a set from MCL. The right side bag is smaller than the left, this is due to the right side opening being smaller it is even described in the Bestem documentation. Yes they both have expansion zippers for the larger lids. The left side bag has an extra zipper pocket. is the only real difference with my set of bags.
You don't need to measure them Phil, just lay them side by side on the floor and eyeball them. Mine are really different, so much so that one can nest inside the other. That probably helps when shipping them. Hey maybe that's what's behind it all!When Ken Mitchell was visiting me week before last, he pointed out that the two bags were different sizes. I'd never noticed it before. So I went and dug out my right bag to compare to the one I'd been using on the left.
Sure enough! They're different sizes. It still work for me, even though Ken thought I had them on the wrong sides. I wouldn't have bothered with a refund if I'd noticed the difference. Ken says that one pannier is smaller than the other. I'm not sure about that. He says the right pannier is shorter in height than the left to give clearance for the muffler. Maybe so, I haven't measured.
