Tank bags allow safely carrying around essentials while on the go

The thrill of curving through your favourite corner on wheels with gushes of fresh air brushing past the face is unmatchable. A neurobiological study by a team of the University of California, Loss Angeles (UCLA) backs this therapeutic effect by claiming that riding a motorcycle decreases hormonal biomarkers of stress by an impressive 28% and increases alertness. 

This free-spirited journey sometimes requires the carrying around of essentials and/or accessories; an activity which the designs of motorcycles do not permit. To the rescue have emerged tank bags, which attach themselves to the bike firmly and allow a carefree biking experience with essentials packed along. We have picked some of the best of these from the market in the listed below. Get, set, whoosh!

Things To Consider Before Buying A Tank Bag 

Size 

Don’t forget to match the dimensions of the bag with that of your bike’s tank to avoid getting a misfit. 

Compartments

Check the number of compartments, storage space and placement of additional pockets and pick the bag which fits well with your requirements. 

Material 

Tank bags are usually exposed to all kinds of weathers while biking. Make sure to pick a bag made of durable and weather-proof material. Many bags also offer rain covers to ensure safe storage. 

Map Pocket

If you are an explorer with navigation maps at the core of your travel, make sure to get a tank bag with touch-sensitive pockets which allow transparent covers through which the smartphones can be easily accessed. 

Mounting

The most important feature to be considered before finalising a tank bag is its installation over the bike. Make sure that you get a bag with a firm and assuring installation arrangement to avoid unwanted falling off and subsequent damage. Usually strong straps or metals are installed to ensure a firm grip.
