Saddlebags
Whenever operating with saddlebags or while carrying cargo:
-
Never ride at excessive speeds. Saddlebags and cargo, combined with the lifting or buffeting effects of wind, can make the motorcycle unstable and cause loss of control.
-
Distribute weight evenly on each side of the motorcycle.
-
Do not exceed the individual weight limit of each saddlebag.
-
NEVER EXCEED GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATING (GVWR) or the GROSS AXLE WEIGHT RATING (GAWR), regardless of whether or not the saddlebags are loaded to capacity. Exceeding the weight rating can reduce stability and handling and cause loss of control.
