To complement its extensive rider clothing collection, BMW Motorrad has an equally diverse range of soft luggage and accessories. All designed with style and function in mind, to suit every kind of rider. All of the products feature in the latest Rider Equipment brochure, but here is a little taster of one of a couple of the items that would make perfect Christmas present ideas for your loved one or even yourself.
First the Function Rucksack, which has a storage capacity of 22 litres. However, this can be expanded to 33 litres due to a hidden lower section that folds out to create further space for items such as a full face helmet, footwear or even spare clothing. The rucksack’s main compartment is 100 per cent waterproof with an impact-protected inner bag, plus there are further sections in the top and the lid, which offer extra storage with comfort padding. The BMW Motorrad Function Rucksack is available in anthracite/grey and retails at £90.
The Commuter bag is the modern alternative to bulky, overweight backpacks thanks to its slim design. Perfect for the city-living motorcyclist, the BMW Commuter bag combines portability with functionality due to its various individual compartments and a generous main storage area large enough to transport everyday essentials such as a laptop computer, folders and paperwork, mobile phone and CD/MP3 player. Made from rugged waterproof Nylon, the Commuter bags contents remain completely dry in a downpour. Additional shock absorbing fabric inside the bag provides excellent impact protection for delicate objects, while reflective material on the front flap ensures excellent visibility. A close fitting ‘belt’ prevents the bag from moving while riding, and an over-the-shoulder strap is perfect for carrying the bag when away from your motorcycle. The BMW Motorrad Commuter bag is available in anthracite/grey, priced £90.
Finally the Helmet bag Exclusive provides excellent protection from knocks and scratches for all motorcycle helmets thanks to an impact-absorbing inner padding. The bag’s twin handles and removable shoulder strap make it easy to carry when off the bike, and a chunky zip fastener makes it simple to store and retrieve the helmet quickly. An extra pocket is also provided for transporting those smaller essentials such as keys, phone and wallet. The BMW Motorrad Helmet bag Exclusive retails at £40 and is available in black.
