A tool much loved by those who ride large-sized motorbikes and which can be very useful for transporting various objects.
Traveling on a motorbike is always an exceptional experience for those who have this atavistic passion linked to two wheels. A fast, comfortable and above all useful means of transport to avoid traffic and parking problems. But motorcycles also have their own glaring shortcomings.
For example, it is difficult to transport objects of various kinds if you travel on a motorcycle, given that the space in the rear trunk or in the helmet pocket which is usually found under the saddle is often not enough. Here comes a tool that represents an effective and also fashionable solution.
Let’s talk about motorcycle bags, i.e. bags that can be mounted laterally in the ‘dead’ spaces of the vehicle. Obviously they must remain less than 50 cm wider than the motorbike, since a larger size would be punished by the Highway Code because it would be considered too bulky. But what are the most useful and requested side bags?

On Amazon and on several other e-commerce sites you can browse and find a variety of motorcycle bags that may be right for you. Of course, the choice is not always simple and obvious, given that objects of various sizes, materials and obviously with different costs are available.
Here are 5 side bag opportunities that are right for you. Let’s start with the Givi EA101B, a type of expandable bag with a top opening and a capacity of up to 30 litres.
