Basic Notions about Motorcycle Luggage

Before going for the motorcycle trip, you have to know how to choose very well what accessories we will add to the motorcycle to maintain the weight balance. But it is also important to know what to buy and whatnot.

All in order

If your goal is to go on a long trip with your motorcycle, the first thing to consider is how you are going to distribute the weight. As for advice, we set aside the backpack as an item to be used on an extensive route, as it will cause back pain. With this discarded, we will choose some side cases, which we will combine with a trunk in the back. To achieve a good performance of our two wheels, the idea is to place an over-tank bag, which will balance the weight. (To keep your balance it is also a good idea to put a higher windshield, which will cause the wind to deflect directly backward).
It is very important that we take into account what we are going to fill the suitcases of the motorcycle. Neither the left nor the right can be heavier since we would be altering the balance. Nor do we have to carry a lot of weight in the trunk.

The right choice
When buying any of the elements of the motorcycle that we are going to add we have to think about what use we are going to give it. If we are going to make a long trip, if we are going to make off-road roads, or if we only want to save a couple of things to take to work.

The trunks are ideal for everyday life, as well as for a trip and for the passenger we carry to lie down, using it as a backup. It comes in all sizes and colors we can imagine, but it has some points against it. They weigh a lot, they have to get hooked with various elements and break down the aerodynamics.
The side cases come in pairs, as we explained before, to balance. There are also many sizes, but these are manufactured with the aerodynamics of the motorcycle in mind. They are practical, easy to organize; although they are a little more expensive than trunks. The use in the city is not highly recommended, because they make maneuvers difficult when being on the sides.

Another option is the side bags, but most have less space than the boot; they are less rigid; heavy rain can make the interior get wet, and you have to be careful that they don't burn with the exhaust. The good side is that they are lighter and more comfortable if they are wanted for urban use.
We can choose bags to put on the tank, which has little space, but they are very useful if we do not need to carry so many objects. It is ideal for carrying documentation, as it is at hand. Seat bags are another choice; they can replace the trunk or complement it. It is best to buy waterproof bags, because we never know when the rain will catch us.
