Nelson-Rigg Saddlebags RG-020 Dual-Sport Expandable 12-15 litre ea - Black

The Nelson-Rigg RG-020 is a universal-fit soft saddlebag set built for dual-sport, enduro and adventure riding. Each bag carries 12 litres and expands to 15 litres, so you can run them slim for a day ride and open them up when you need to bring more back with you.

Construction is UV-treated, water-resistant 1680D Tri-Max ballistic nylon with an anti-slip, anti-scratch protective panel on the bike side, reverse coil zippers to help keep dust and grit out, and reflective piping for night-time visibility. A separate tool pouch under the main compartment gives you outside access to spares and tools without unpacking your gear.

Mounting is strap-based rather than rack-specific, using heavy-duty self-fastening straps and quick-release buckles, which suits riders who want luggage that moves between bikes. Backed by the Rigg Gear Lifetime Warranty.

Fit the bags with the anti-slip protective panel facing the bike so it sits against the bodywork or subframe, and route the self-fastening straps clear of the exhaust, chain, tyre and any moving suspension components.
Pull all straps snug and re-check the quick-release buckles after the first few kilometres of a ride, and again after any rough or corrugated section — soft luggage settles and can loosen.
Balance the load between the left and right bag and keep heavier items low and forward; only use the expanded 15-litre setting when the load can still be strapped down firmly.
The fabric is water resistant rather than waterproof, so use dry bags or liners inside for clothing, electronics and paperwork in sustained rain or river crossings.
Brush off dust and mud, then clean with a soft brush or cloth, mild soap and cool water. Avoid solvents, petrol, bleach and pressure washers, which can damage the coating and stitching.
Air dry fully in the shade before packing away, and never dry the bags on or near a hot exhaust or heater.
Keep the reverse coil zippers clean; rinse grit out of the teeth and work them gently rather than forcing them when dirty.
Store empty, dry and unclipped in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to protect the UV-treated fabric and keep mould out of the seams.
Inspect the straps, buckles, stitching and zip pullers periodically for fraying, cracking or wear and replace worn straps before a long trip.
Refer to the Nelson-Rigg fitment instructions supplied with the bags for the recommended strapping arrangement on your bike.
