Review on πŸ›΅ Versatile Motorcycle Fork Bag: PU Leather Handlebar Tool Pouch for Convenient Sissy Bar Roll Storage – 2 Straps Included by Kevin Witherspoon

Revainrating 5 out of 5

BEATEN! Great little bag!

Okay, about $20, I wasn't expecting that! When I saw the box it came in I thought it was too small. It's not, it's perfect. Just the thing for any small hand tool you might want to take with you on the go, up to a 10" wrench or ratchet, plus all those other goodies and gadgets! A lot of these installation reviews seem quite old, I think the manufacturer listened and hit the mark! Previously it came with 2 vinyl straps with regular buckles and 3 fairly strong zip ties for backup. They've since added 2 (wait.) sets, yes, 2 extra sets of straps! These are stiff nylon webbing, about an inch, with good buckles and full velcro! 2 pairs slightly different configuration, Velcro on the belt! The installation is now very safe! Features: I agree with most of the reviews, I really like the quick release buckles and in general they aren't adjustable, the bag really keeps its shape and I'm 100% sure I'll never lose even 1 small socket! on faux leather. Some people said it was leather or even called it vinyl! That's not true, the outer shell of this bag is really real leather. This is not the highest quality leather, I'm even assuming it's pigskin. Yes, they do. Even the Italians. PU rather let it be what they call Split Hyde. The skins that come off the animal are really thick, more than practical and useful. So it's split at the edge. This is done multiple times and then carefully finished to look and feel like "real" leather. It's because it is. It's a damn strong bag when not abused. Not designed to carry 20lb tools so keep it under 5 and I suspect it will be around for a long time. If you watched the installation video above, the instructions say you need to treat your SKIN with some kind of water repellent before taking it out in the rain. I heard something about it: leather has to be waterproof.
