Key features
Semi-rigid design
Our MotoBags are made from the soft yet extremely durable material Hypalon. Thanks to the stiffening innerboard and innerplate, the MotoBags keep the same shape as hardcases but flex during a crash or tipover.
M.O.L.L.E. panels
Our MotoBags are equipped with the military attachment system on the front and back, as well as top and bottom. You can attach our smaller bags (MiniBags, MicroBags, TallBags, Bottle Holders) or your own M.O.L.L.E. compatible gear.
Corner protection
The most exposed parts of our MotoBags are the bottom corners. Whether offroading or riding twisty roads, the rubber protectors can easily be replaced if necessary.
Velcro plate
Personalize your MotoBags with your country’s flag or attach your own velcro patches — the choice is yours.
Rolltop closure
No leaking rubber sealings or zippers. The MotoBags close with a heavy duty rolltop closure to ensure the elements stay out of your gear.
Heavy duty handles
Mounting and removal of your MotoBags is quick and easy thanks to the reinforced handles.
Quick Release System
The MotoBags can be adjusted to fit most tubular-shaped racks on the market. This makes it easier to pick up your bike after a crash or tip-over, as you can quickly detach both bags and reduce the bike’s total weight. Comes pre-adjusted for BMW R1200/1250GS OEM racks.
Heavy duty closing straps
Available in Black (preinstalled on all MotoBags), Blue, Orange, Red, and Yellow.
Locking clamp
Secure your gear by locking your MotoBags with the included padlock.

It took me a while to decide if these were actually what I wanted. What can I say.. ZERO regrets. They look amazing, feel amazing and extremely well made. They fitted directly onto the OEM racks of my R1200 GSA straight out the box. So flexible when coming to add extras to the mole system. Very happy with this purchase. I have the Overlander also for big trips, the tailpack for everyday use and of course I need the hangry pouches :) my bike has become a LR advert. Thx LR.
I used these Lone Rider bags throughout my midwinter motorcycle trip in Japan.
Despite several drops, slips, and harsh riding conditions, they held up incredibly well and really proved their durability.
Some tips on setting up the bags and mount for your bike. If like me, this was a bit of retail therapy due some slight depression, it may seem like a good idea, but DO NOT try to do it drunk. It will end in tears and frustration. Being sober makes it so much easier and faster. Tip 2, if you're a mechanic and have to do a side job, when you bring your tools home using the bags, forget the center stand. I think I may have hurt by shoulder trying to lift the back of the bike with that much weight in the bags. Soon, there will be a camping trip that will use the bags the way they're meant to be used. Can't wait.

This is my second set of motobags; there's a reason I got a second set for my GS, they are the favorite that I've used. I've tried Kriega, SW-Motech, and, of course, the hard cases.
The semi-rigid design keeps them open for easy packing, they clamp on and off the racks easily and securely in my experience, they are much lighter than hard cases, and if you pack too much, you can just clip it over and sync it down, unlike hard cases.
My issue, with owning two sets is getting the locking latch to line up. Out of four bags, I've only had 1 that would line up and able to lock. Even that one was with effort. And I wish the inside was red (like everything else LR makes) so you can easily see what's in there if you're not using the included waterproof bags.
But those two flaws are not enough to deter me from buying another set if I need more bags.
These bags are extremely well made. Unfortunate I couldn't use the quick disconnect mode for them. But even though they're 'permanently' attached, they are solid and look like they can take a serious beating.
Vraiment top ! Une belle capacité qui ne gêne pas puisque qu'on peut les replier, peut s'ajuster, le seul petit point améliorable pour moi c'est la fermeture pour le cadenas qui est hyper évidente à fermer mais sinon rien à dire !

Really good and high-quality bags, you just need to learn how to close them, and their own video will help with that. The side bags are made in such a way that they saved me and the motorcycle from serious injuries.
Ich bin 15.000 km von Deutschland nach Russland und zurück gefahren. Auf der Straße und Offroad. Die Taschen haben alles mitgemacht, selbst einen Sturz im Gelände. Alle Taschen waren wasserdicht, staubdicht und gut zu verschließen. Be- und Entladen waren kein Problem.
Auch das Befestigen von zusätzlichen Taschen war problemlos, nichts ist aus- oder abgerissen.
Kaufempfehlung, nicht nur ein Stylprodukt, sondern wirklich für die Reise konzipiert.
Borse molto capienti e robuste!
Ottimo il sistema di sicurezza che permette di chiuderle con il lucchetto e la possibilità di aggiungere altre borse con il sistema molle.
Molto comoda la borsa interna impermeabile.
Davvero consigliate!
