Motorcycle Luggage

Just bought a BMW R1300R. Love the bike but of course there isn’t anywhere to put the small things all bikers need. This is perfect and looks good on the bike too. At the price it is a steal.

I bought the Klim Arsenal vest after seeing it on YouTube. I have used several different back packs in the past. This solution gives you plenty options for storage with 4 stand out pockets on the front and an additional 2 flat document style pockets. The two tall narrow pockets on the side are really useful I had a flask in one and a torch and water bottle in the other. At one point I had a baguette in there as well. The back pouch/ pouches are quite spacious even with the water bladder full 3ltr. I keep my waterproofs in there ready at hand. There is a tool roll that fits on the back as well. I wouldn’t overpack that but good for a few tools or puncture kit.
I was surprised just how comfrey it is to wear and although with water, flask, baguette and tools etc it can get quite heavy, you don’t notice the weight when riding and it is comfortable enough that even walking around with the weight is not problematic, plenty of straps to adjust the for to your liking which is also very good at keeping it in place when riding or walking. Overall I would highly recommend this Klim Vest system . 10 out of 10

Nice well made bag and fits a treat on the Honda Rebel 1100

Very good product would highly recommend

The rubber on these items is very soft, and within 6 months began to crack and deform. After 12 months they are falling apart, no longer support an arm and need replacement. I have been in touch with RAM to request a replacement under their "lifetime warranty" only to be told that they will not honour their commitment as they would only consider it if the arms used were also RAM branded.

So if you intend to use these to retrofit mirrors, think again. Or factor paying for a new set once a year.

The bag is very good quality but the straps are not great. They go fore and aft which really doesn’t work on bikes and the length of the straps below the bag make it hard to fit. I’ve fixed them up and I tie the bag down with RokStraps. That makes it quick release.
