Rackless FAQ's

Strzelecki Rackless Base – FAQs

✅ What is the Strzelecki Rackless Base?
It’s the foundation of our modular luggage system—carry soft panniers and a roll bag without bulky pannier racks.

✅ Will it fit my bike?
Yes. It’s a universal fit, designed to strap to most ADV and dual-sport bikes using pillion pegs, passenger mounts, or luggage loops. It even fits over your existing pannier racks in some cases.

✅ Do I need to drill or modify anything?
No drilling. No cutting. Just strap it on and ride—installs in minutes.

✅ What bags are compatible with the base?
It’s built for our Strzelecki 20L Soft Panniers and Roll Bags.

✅ Is heat from the exhaust a problem?
Not with our Nomad Moto Exhaust Heat Shields. Essential for high-mounted or dual exhaust setups.

✅ Is it waterproof?
The base itself is water-resistant. Pair it with our dry bags for 100% waterproof protection—rain, rivers, and red dust ready.

✅ Can I still use my pillion seat or passenger pegs?
Yes, most of the time. The base sits low and neat, keeping your pillion seat and pegs accessible.

✅ How fast can I install it?
First time: under 10 minutes. After that, you’ll have it on in 2–3 minutes.

✅ Can I use it for camping and long rides?
Absolutely. It’s built tough for day trips, overnighters, and full-blown outback adventures.

✅ What if I already have pannier racks?
You’ve got two easy options:
➤ Leave them on – the Rackless Base fits over some racks and plates.
➤ Or go lighter – simply remove the racks and run the base directly on the bike.

✅ Still not sure if it’ll fit? No worries! Send us a photo of your bike, and we’ll happily check for you. crew@nomad-moto.com
