I am new to the ATV world after spending many years riding snowmobiles. I have the SP500HO with the short rack extenders (3.5&quot I can definitely see the need for buying a rear bag for storage. My question is which do you prefer, the soft side or hard box style? I have seen ATV logic and Kolpin and I am sure many others. Kolpin is quite a bit higher than the others, are they worth it?

Thanks

 

I prefer the soft ones.'
I have one for each bike,the u-shaped ones.
I just ordered 8 more for some friends,
$65 each is a good deal
And yes it's waterproof

 

Which brand and where did you order them from for $65?

 

The hard sides have the advantage of not squashing any of your delicate stuff. However the soft sides don't rattle nearly as bad if you have say, a canteen in it 'loose'.
I prefer the hard side for 'permanent' mounting, and the soft side, with quick-buckles for putting on & off. I think it is more a personal preference thing than which one is 'better'.
Whatever you get, spend the extra for ones that are waterproof.
