Revainrating 4 out of 5

Well made and durable.

Anyone who owns a motorcycle can tell you that there are never enough ways to pack your stuff for a trip. Bicycle). However, the gas intake of my CBR600RR is too close for me and so is the bag. Some say they just lean on the bag but I don't like the idea of crushing them with my chest so I installed them backwards by rotating the attachment point under the bag (easy, just 4 screws). This works very well for me and I have secured the seat belts under the seat (temporarily remove the tank screw to get the belt through). The downside to this is that I have to remove the seat to remove the bag, but it looks like it was made for that since the tank is tilted forward. It looks solid and well made, has reflective piping at the top and sides, and three side pockets that attach to a shoulder strap that can be detached from the bag and worn as a waist pack (yes I will, but to each their own) . ). Also comes with a raincoat (for the bag, not for you), carry handle as you can't actually attach the bag to the bike so just take it with you when you're stopping for a bite to eat or whatever. It also has a shoulder strap for hands-free carrying. My hydration tube's hydration tube fits snugly through the hole in the bag (but it's originally designed to run cords to all devices), so it's a good option for carrying water bladders. Although there is no option to wear a full face helmet. I can put my medium sized Arai about halfway in for temporary mounting (better than trying to hang it on the steering wheel). However, I managed to fit my spare Bell Mag9 (open face) helmet all the way in and zipped it up so I could safely carry it with me when I went to pick up a passenger. Even in this expanded view, I can easily see my dash above it, so that's not a problem.
