UK most likely..
Rossi bought a set of panniers, Kawasaki ones at that.. They are black with kawasaki on the bags and the zippers. Can't remember the brand, but it is one of the well known bag makers.
I think his biggest issue was the cost of frieght, but having said that in hindesight, getting 2-4 of them at once would have been better as they are fabric so they could be packed in abit to utilise space and get a better price per item landed.
