Adequate storage on any bike is a hard enough task. Storage on sport bikes seems to be just that much harder as leather just doesn't quite compliment the color schemes, and there are nowhere near as many saddlebags and fender pack options.
The Axio Tail Bag aims to provide a solution to that dilemma. It's available in all sorts of OE color matches including silver, red, blue, and even a carbon fiber-looking model. It is styled to compliment the style of a street bike and provide plenty of storage. The bag itself is really more of a container as it is made from molded plastic. Inside are two smaller compartments and a larger main storage. The base is made from polyester nylon. Another feature that is actually a little odd, given the style, is the built-in hidden shoulder strap that allows you to turn your Tail Bag into a backpack. Problem is, it basically looks like you are carrying around a motorcycle tail bag on your back.
The bottom line is that this is a sleek-looking bag that really can make for some much-needed storage on your sport bike. Axio knows what they are doing when it comes to bikes.
And if you're not looking for something so big and bulky, try this hydration pack by Camelbak.
