Correct answer
According to pannier, mounting-system and motorcycle manufacturer limits.
Consult and respect the pannier, mounting-system and motorcycle manufacturers’ limits, applying the most restrictive relevant limit. There is no universal 10 kg maximum per pannier: it varies by model. Also respect vehicle maximum mass, load distribution and securing instructions; fasten and balance the load. Installation is not always exempt from approval or roadworthiness requirements: it depends on the accessory and whether it constitutes a vehicle modification.
