They are OEM panniers, don't know the size. They will not hold helmet. That is what a top case would before. I would say for gear. They are top loading

Very nice bike. I bought almost the same (but a VStom 1000) this weekAs some of you may know my wife and I are full-time RV'ers and haul our bikes with us. Since we don't do long hauls anymore and I am getting closer to 70 I decided the time was right to down size my bike. My wife has a F700GS and I am happy with that size bike. So my choices for me came down to a F700GS a 2016 or newer or a Gen 3 V-strom 650.XT Adventure. So based on price and availability I got a 2020 V-Strom 650 XT Adventure with 1500 miles on the clock. Had a good price and was much easier to find that a F700GS. What a great midsize bike.
Nice ride, but riding in the snow is a bit too risky FOR ME.
