Review on ๐Ÿ๏ธ Kuryakyn 5285 Momentum Vagabond Motorcycle Travel Luggage: Weatherproof Seat/Trunk/Rack Bag with Sissy Bar Straps, Black by Brian Fisher

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect. for accessories

Very well made. The rain fly works very well (tested early and often). Should fit well on most bikes with handlebars (the higher the better, the top tends to slip on rough terrain). Pros: Excellent materials and construction. in a heavy storm) - Plenty of room - Strong zippers - Works well as a backrest if you put a tarp or MC cover over the front bungee cords; The raincoat still fits. Mediocre: - The sissy bar is set at a 90 degree angle to the seat and the bag pulls out of shape easily when tightened. Sissy bar straps require a lot of strength and will most likely not work if you have handlebars that are wider than average. Plastic connectors are not suitable for the application (attachment to a sissy bar). Security: You are on a bike, a dummy. If someone wants it, they get it. Attach some cheap stuff to the outside. Other: The large storage space helps to clutter the top of the bike. Obviously yes, but if you normally only ride saddlebags and rarely a passenger, this will transform your ride. It would give 10 stars if they left out the 3 prongs of plastic for the double helmet style D-ring that attaches to the sissy bar (this can be a real headache even on standard width bars. Still easy to get off). I wouldn't mind adding extra loops around the base of the back.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • In order
