Motorcycle tank bags

Everything at hand

The tank bag, placed in front of the rider, keeps what you need while riding within reach: documents, phone, spare gloves, windbreaker. Its transparent window on top holds a map or smartphone for navigation. It can be removed in seconds when stopped and can be carried over the shoulder, perfect for taking your things to the restaurant or hotel.

The rest of the luggage

Motorcycle bags are also available in:

• Cavalry bags.
• Saddle bags.
• Tunnel bags.

All bags can be found on the bags page.

The fittings

The magnetic bag, like the Shad, sits on steel tanks without any support. Bags with straps fit other motorcycles. The quick lock systems use a ring screwed around the tank cap: Bagster Lock'n Start, Givi Tanklock, Shad Click System, or SW-Motech Pro. The bag clicks into place and can be removed with a single motion, even for refueling.

Bagster and its unique features

The French brand Bagster also offers bags based on a traditional design that attach to its tank covers, and the Puppy, a tank bag designed to safely carry a small dog. You need to check the compatibility of the ring with your tank cap and ensure the bag does not obstruct the handlebar movement when fully turned.

Great deals

Good deals can also be found in the good deals, promotions, clearance, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped within 24 hours are prepared and dispatched within that time. The highlights of the year follow a stable order: Black Friday at the end of autumn, the holiday season, winter sales, French Days in spring, and then summer sales and back to school.

Frequently asked questions

Magnetic tank bag or plate bag, which to choose?

The magnetic bag attaches in an instant but only works on steel tanks and may mark the paint. The plate systems, like the Givi Tanklock or the Shad Click System, are fixed to the tank ring and are suitable for plastic tanks.

What capacity should I choose for a tank bag?

For the city, a small bag is enough for documents and phone. For travel, an expandable bag with a larger volume can hold rain clothes and spare gloves without interfering with the handlebars or visibility of the dashboard.

Can a tank bag carry a small dog?

The Bagster Puppy is designed for this: it attaches to the tank and holds a small dog in front of the rider. Gradually get them used to it, starting with short rides at a steady pace.

Is a tank bag waterproof?

Most can withstand showers, but heavy rain will eventually seep through seams and zips. A rain cover, often included, or a bag with a waterproof closure can protect documents and electronics on long trips.

How do I know if a tank bag is compatible with my motorcycle?

For a ring system like the Bagster Lock'n Start or the Givi Tanklock, you need the specific tank ring for the motorcycle model, screwed in place of the cap screws. For a strap bag, check the shape of the tank.
