Motorcycle Accessories to Make Your Kit Complete
The basic concept of motorcycle accessories is to make your time on the road easier. Some of them help you out by giving additional storage. Some of them provide more comfort, help you go farther or simply guide you when you get lost.
Here at MotoCentral we pride ourselves on providing an extensive range of thoroughly awesome motorcycle accessories, each of which has been ergonomically designed to keep you riding. So whether you want to make your journey in more comfort, add a little style to your ride, or just increase how much you can take with you – we will have the motorcycle accessories that you need.
Without further ado, let's take a look at some of our favourite luggage accessories features, and see if we can't find exactly what you need.
Motorcycle Luggage Accessories
The most common type of motorcycle luggage accessory is the saddlebag – or tank bag – although there are a variety of other styles available to you. When choosing which luggage you want on your bike think about weight distribution, as well as strength and versatility. Capacity is also important because you obviously want to be able to carry as much as you can. Waterproofing, durability and strap security are also considerations you ought to make before buying a new piece of motorcycle luggage.
Some of our favourite motorcycle luggage features include:
- The reflection of the Richa luggage roll. You get extra storage but it adds an extra safety feature while it carries. It comes in at an affordable price, too.
- The angle of the Willie & Max luggage. This slant allows maximum passenger legroom, a bit of luggage space, and an aerodynamic angle that won't see you off-balance or slowed down.
- The sleek design and usefulness of the Kappa soft leather tool bag. It keeps everything in place for the worker that likes to ride.
Top Boxes
Top boxes are usually designed so that they can fit on the back seat, or on the back of the bike. On a bigger motorcycle they would be positioned behind where the passenger sits. They are rarely made from fabric and are usually made from harder plastics or materials that are hardy and dense. They are made for storage of more delicate items that can't afford to be bounced around on the road.
Some of our favourite top box features include:
- The 44 litres of storage and the classical, elegant feel of the Oxford Top Box.
- The universal fit plate kit that comes with our Oxford range.
- That some of our Evo covers come with room for that top box, so that your tank bag doesn't get let down if it's in storage.
Tail Bags
These tank bags are pieces of motorcycle luggage that are attached to the 'tail' or back end of the bike. They are good for weight distribution since their centre of gravity is the same as yours. They can generally hold quite a lot of weight and can be leather, textile or hard plastic.
Some of our favourite tank bag features include:
- The Spada Midi tail bag is waterproof, comes with four external pockets, uses a secure webbing for closure and features rip stop textiles.
- The Kappa waterproof tail bag has ample storage space, plus it's made from 840D TPU Tarpaulin welded at high frequencies for extra durability.
- The Oxford F1 Large tail bag has so much space it's unreal. We love the personalized colour inserts that let you tailor the look to match your bike.
Panniers
Panniers are an interesting tank bag choice because they combat the weight distribution problem without you having to constantly balance yourself. Panniers are dual packs that are usually linked by a strap of material. They are then slung over your bike so that one bag hangs on either side. Useful for both balance and storage.
Some of our favourite motorcycle panniers feature:
- The designer features on the Richa Designer panniers. They have good balance and durability, for a great price.
- The khaki design on the Oxford Heritage panniers – these are canvas, but long-lasting.
- So not all of us have a BMW, but have a look at the sheer beauty of the Biketek Adventure Panniers... we can all dream.
