Nelson-Rigg Tailbag Day Trip NR-210 Black 20 litre

The Nelson-Rigg NR-210 Day Trip is a 20-litre tail bag built for day rides, commuting and light touring, where you need somewhere secure to stow a jacket liner, lunch, tools or an overnight change of clothes. It straps to a luggage rack, sissy bar or pillion seat using quick-release self-fastening straps, so it can be fitted and removed without tools or permanent hardware.

Construction is the focus here: UltraMax fabric resists UV fade, while the rigid body and solid base panel keep the bag holding its shape rather than slumping over the seat when it is only part full. Reflective piping adds visibility to the rear of the bike after dark, and the supplied rain cover pulls over the bag when the weather turns.

Suits riders on naked bikes, cruisers and sport-tourers who want practical, removable luggage without committing to a hard-case system.

Fit the bag over the pillion seat, luggage rack or sissy bar and draw the quick-release straps up firmly, then tuck or secure the loose strap tails so they cannot reach the rear wheel, chain or sprocket.
Check strap tension and buckle security before every ride, and again after the first few kilometres of a longer trip once the load has settled.
Keep the bag clear of the exhaust and other hot surfaces — the fabric and straps can melt or scorch on contact.
Fit the supplied rain cover before riding into wet weather rather than after; it is easier to deploy while the bag is dry, and the main fabric is water resistant rather than a sealed dry bag.
Remove the rain cover and let both it and the bag air dry fully before packing away, so damp does not sit against the base panel or inside the pockets.
Clean with a soft cloth or sponge, lukewarm water and a mild soap. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, pressure wash or use solvents, petrol or harsh detergents on the fabric or reflective piping.
Wipe road grime off the reflective piping regularly so it keeps working at night.
Pack heavier items low and central and avoid overstuffing, which strains the zippers and distorts the rigid shell.
Lock the outer pocket zippers only for short stops — soft luggage is not theft proof, so take valuables with you when leaving the bike.
Store it stuffed lightly or flat in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to help the rigid body hold its shape, and inspect the straps, buckles and zippers periodically for fraying or wear.
