Nelson Rigg Route 1 Destination Backrest/Sissy Bar Rack Bag; Fits Harley Davidson, Indian, Yamaha & Suzuki Motorcycles

Excellent product. It looks great, holds up well, and carries plenty of stuff. It's easy to install on a smaller luggage rack and attaches securely to the sissy bar and luggage rack. With no luggage rack you'll need a relatively inexpensive (16.00 or so) underseat mounting system. It's easy to take on and off. It's not meant to function as a backpack but does have a carry handle. The pack can be divided into two compartments or used as one large container. The only thing it lacks is a pick to hold a coke or something, but there are external zippered pockets so this isn't a big deal. I'm very happy with it after looking at several other options from some other popular brands. It's large, so if you don't like saddle bags you can always get something smaller for day to day use if this is bigger than what you want to ride with on a regular basis. For this type of luggage, you'll be hard pressed to beat this, especially for the price. It also comes with a nice waterproof cover although the bag itself is pretty resistant.

I have only used this one time. The luggage is sturdy and easy to secure to a backrest and luggage rack. I checked it on the road and never had adjust it or re secure it "400 miles round trip". It has plenty of space for your clothes and your passengers stuff to go away for 3 to 4 days. We tend to over pack and it had plenty of room. The pockets on the outside were nice to stash small items that you might want access to along the way. The cover fits well and secures well. I don't have any experience with any other brands but this seems to be a good investment.

This is a super bag. It is plenty big for all my stuff and is especially made for strapping down to my luggage rack and sissy bar. It is water resistant, but also comes with a rain cover.

***edited to add: it can carry a 40-pound box of cat litter measuring 13" x 14" x 9 1/2". I needed a large bag for my bike. It's my only transportation, and I sometimes need to carry 30+ pounds of camera gear or groceries. I *really* like that the divider between top and bottom compartments zips down; this makes it so that my laptop bag fits in here with room for my leather jacket when it gets too warm, and it's stable enough even sitting on the passenger seat that I don't worry it'll tip over. It attaches to the bike easily. In the photos, you can see that I don't have a pad on my sissy-bar; I removed it, but this bag fits either way. The four straps to tie it down at each bottom corner work well and are plenty long enough to pass under the seat and to the other side, if you wish, or would work well passing under a fender rack. I've been riding for 40+ years, and this is probably the most easy-to-use, easy-to-install bag I've ever had. It is YUGE, so it does catch the wind a bit, and I wouldn't recommend putting this behind the sissy bar on a luggage rack if you put 30+ pounds of gear in it .. balance is affected a bit. The one "drawback" I found is that the top cover is made to be semi-rigid, but doesn't hold its shape when it's warmer than say 80 degrees F as shown in the photos. This is only when empty; the cover flexes back to a normal shape when there's stuff in there. Stitching seems well-done; materials are pretty top-notch; overall weight is fairly light for a bag this big. I do like the reflective piping but wish there was more reflective material on the sides and back -- it did come with a rain cover, which I haven't yet had to use, and the cover itself does have what looks like reflective lettering on the back.

Great bag I upgraded from the smaller Getaway bag which served me well just wanted extra space for the long ride.

Good size bag, goes on easy and quickly. Secures to rack and backrest tight. Have not used it yet but it appears to be made well. Comes with waterproof/repellent bag. Do not anticipate any problems with it coming loose or flapping around.

So far I'm very impressed. It is a large bag and I have not had it long but it secures to the bike very easily. Comes with a rain cover, the zippers are very heavy duty! I bought it for a trip to Colorado and New Mexico in late May, it should be plenty of room! It will be my first long trip on a bike so time will tell!! Safe Riding Everyone!

I had to modify the straps from dry bag to support the bag on trip, the under the seat buckle st didn’t get tight r ough. With bungees. This bag was great as a back rest on trip. Highly recommend this for those with sissy bar, or rack. Worked out well on trip.

La fond rigide est de très mauvaise qualité. Il c’est brisé dès que j’en ai fait l’essaie sur ma moto sans aucun bagage à l’intérieur et il n’y a pas moyen de le remplacer. Beaucoup de rangement et c’est très facile d’accéder aux choses qui sont dans le fond du sac. Je le recommande, je le recommande.

Second bag from Nelson Rigg, love the product, sturdy.

Unfortunately not good! First time I strapped it on my back sissy bar when it was packed and under weight the plastic bottom shattered and broken into May pieces and can’t access it or fix it. And also the top compartment zipper I noticed on my last day of my 8 day road trip is coming apart 😬😔. It seemed very durable but I will have to reach out to Nelson Riggs now and see what they can do for me. Not good for only it’s first use!!
