The bag did not fit on the Kuryakin counter. Not even close.

I bought this Kuryakyn bag specifically to carry with Kuryakyn 7151 for Goldwing. The stand is great. The problem is that the bag doesn't fit on the luggage rack. Not even close. The bungee slides right off the back, the Velcro straps don't line up with the trunk rails at all, and the gap between the pockets is much narrower than in the passenger backrest, so even if the front of the trunk allows you to sit far forward, there's enough pockets on both sides of the backrest (which is not theโ€ฆ

  • Great for outdoor activities

Good product! Well done! Very helpful!

Ordered for HD Road Glide Ultra The bag comes with a strong elastic cord at the bottom and two hooks to hold the bag taut on a luggage rack. There were also 4 corner Velcro straps. I've found that the best way to use velcro straps to keep the bag from moving is to "roll" the loop around the rack and then secure it with a hook. After receiving the bag I rode it 1700 miles. Executed flawlessly. Since Harley offers rack weight restrictions, I use mine to carry a raincoat and spare jacket and someโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • No performance

Great bag for the purpose

Last year my wife and I upgraded the Roadglide with a touring package. We bought this Kuryakyn bag as a top part of a tour package in preparation for a tour to Montana. This bag comes in handy to store gear that we may need in a hurry, such as: B. a raincoat. The elastic drawstring at the top worked well for storing jackets etc as changing weather conditions dictated changes to our gear. The included rain cover fits snugly in the bag and kept our gear nice and dry for the last 120 miles ofโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Hard to say

and it was great. Lots of storage space for both clothes.

Just got back from a 1000+ mile ride on the Kuryakyn Momentum Hitchhiker and it was great. Lots of storage space for our clothes and snacks/water. I only have two small complaints that keep me from giving it 5 stars. First, the elastic around the rain cover needs some sort of drawstring or tie-down closure. We thought we were going to get caught in the rain so we put on a bow tie beforehand. And although it's attached to the bag at one point with Velcro (where it tucks into the flyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Good but not great

Good value, durable, perfect size

Bought this bag for a 2500 mile tour from Seattle to Jackson, Wyoming, through Yellowstone and back home with my wife. The bag is processed perfectly. Not a helmet bag, but I think it's the perfect size for a touring backpack. Easily fits two pairs of raincoats, sweatshirts, snack bags, goggles, face masks, gloves. the list goes on, and all the lotions and potions the woman takes with her for protection from the sun and the like. Basically anything she always wants to have access to when sheโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Not as thick as others

Mother happy with luggage

And when mother is happy, so am I. So here's what happened: I have a modified Harley Super Glide. My wife loves to ride but was sorry for rear riding this bike. And I don't blame her, it's a tough ride. So she started talking about getting something more comfortable. Well I love my wife so I bought a packer this spring. Electroglide Ultra Classic 2014. Sweet Journey. Anyway, next week she will be 50 years old. Instead of a party, she just wants to leave the house for 3-4 days, just the two ofโ€ฆ

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • So-so
