Motorcycle Luggage & Covers

Although motorcycles lack the trunk space of a car, there are plenty of storage options to choose from. Motorcycle bags come in many styles and sizes, so finding the right one depends on what you need it for. 

Types of Motorcycle Bags

If you use your motorcycle for commuting to work or if you’re going on a short trip, backpacks are a simple solution. Some models also have reinforced internal storage pockets for carrying laptops. Always look for waterproof options to ensure nothing gets wet in case of rain.

Another option is a motorcycle tank bag. These types of bags are attached onto the tail or seat of the bike, which is where a passenger would sit. Tank bags are attached with straps or a magnet mount with additional straps for security, depending on the style. To avoid getting the bag wet, there’s a pull-out waterproof rain cover built into the bag. 

Motorcycle saddlebags are also a popular option. Not every motorcycle comes with saddlebags, but they can be installed. These types of bags sit on either side of the bike, right above the rear wheel. Unlike tank bags, saddlebags take a bit more effort to uninstall, so most riders keep them on all the time. 

How To Protect Your Motorcycle

If you don’t have your own garage and need to park outdoors, a motorcycle cover is an effective and affordable solution. 

Motorcycle covers come in different sizes, so you’ll have to ensure you buy the right sized cover for your bike. All covers are designed to protect against weather conditions such as rain and sun damage, which can eventually cause rust and further damage.
