Soft luggage is a necessity to get from point A to B on your sport-touring bike. Onyx Saddle Bags have excellent storage capacity that expands when needed to stuff in extra gear or items collected during a trip. An additional 3 inches of expansion is accessible by using external zippers. To support gear and compress unused space, straps with buckles run across the top to add tension. Where handles attach, plastic D-rings allow gear to be strapped on top for more carrying capability. Should weather refuse to cooperate, a simple rain cover slips over each bag to ensure that carried items don’t get ruined. FirstGear Onyx bags use durable 1000 Denier construction with a PVC coating to enhance its durability.
