More I read the more I get confused.

I have a 06 LSV. Looking to add some weight into the rear corners..really for surfing.

Folks surf on both slides so Id like to get a pair of sacks - one for each rear corner. About 400-600 in each corner.

And of course a good pump.

Anyone have a recommendation? Best one out there?

Thx

I got the piggy back system and was amazed at how it did Not leak and it fills up very quickly so i'm ready do go, but it does take too long to drain because the bottom tank is empty before the top bag can drain down into the bottom tank.

I use these. They take about 5 minutes to fill/drain. They are very durable as well.

mgs, i guess you don't have a ballast system that you just push a button on the dash and it fills up or empties, or maybe you like putting the hoses on by hand and being at a complete stop when filling the tanks or maybe you like holding the pump in the water by hand facing the current when your going 5 mph to fill the bag on the go or maybe people in canada just like extra wark? Get the piggy back system which WORKS WITH YOUR CURRENT SYSTEM that you already have. I have a VLX, so I know the piggy back worked for me, Iknow the moomba 02-08 had some problems so if knowbody on here has a moomba go to the moomba website and find someone who knows, good luck!

buckthis, I live in South Carolina. We travel to Canada as a family once a year. I was just trying to give a suggestion to the OP. I dont mind sitting still for 5-10 minutes to fill or drain a sack. It would be nice to have the sacks piggybacked in, but I do not have this yet.

buckthis, It's not a huge deal to manually fill sacs. I don't have the piggy back system for my LSV and while it may be nice it's also more expensive. Side note, I've heard that if you ride sacked out some will drain out in your turns; perhaps that's just an old version though?
