Thinking behind it:-
This was by far one of the most complicated projects we have
worked on so far, We had a target bike RE interceptor which at
the time didn’t have many good capacity options for saddle
bags. The seat to exhaust height was low ( stock exhausts ) with
the additional challenge of the exhausts being present on both
side and the heat being generated extreme.
Of course as per our usual methods the bag was going to be
universal for all high end cruiser, touring and sports bikes with
simplified yet effective strapping options. Thus began the
journey lasting for months for the most effective strapping
system.
We decided to rely on our Ride Marshall Series strappings
which have proven to be simple, effective and fail proof.
The three point over the seat double locking straps prove to be
effective and easy to do while strapping bike on with luggage,
they have been so placed to enable the user to pull up the bags
as much as required, out of the three locks two have been
placed on both ends and one has been placed in the opposite
side, this has been done to enable similar pull up levels on ends
and central opposite pull up to counter the weight and
drooping.
The straps can be adjusted as per seat height which differs from
bike to bike and seat to seat and of course compatible with
custom seats and saddle stays. The use of under the seat
strapping system however is restricted to some extent for some
Interceptor and Continental GT type bikes as the ratio between
the exhaust and seat is too low to do so but over the seat
strapping works perfectly in such cases.
The tethering has been uniquely designed for all such uses on
any bike including bikes like Impulse Xpulse etc ( saddle stay
required here)
You can either strap it up in the standard way, one strap at the
back and two to the front or you can strap the bag to the
saddle stays and the bike at the same time too!
The newly designed LL buckles + 6 strap locking system enables
you to secure the bag as tightly as you want and anywhere you
want, a detailed video ( its going to be a long one) will be out
shortly.
