I had a pair of Nashbars. For the sale price, if one is going to use them just occasionally, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
Big difference between the KLR and a bike? No suspension on a bike (well, at least most bikes panniers are going on), I had a big issue with my Nashbars bouncing off on rough roads, the latching system alone was worth the price of the upgrade to Ortliebs.
