FAQs

Are these saddlebags truly waterproof?

Yes, the Nelson Rigg Hurricane Saddlebags are designed to be 100% waterproof, featuring PVC Tarpaulin construction with electronically heat-welded seams and a watertight roll closure.

What is the capacity of each saddlebag?

Each main compartment measures approximately 15” x 8” x 14” and holds about 28 liters, for a total of 56 liters for the pair.

How do I clean the saddlebags?

The UV-coated outer material is easy to clean. Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Can I mount these on any motorcycle?

These saddlebags are designed for most motorcycles. Always ensure there is adequate clearance from exhaust pipes and the rear wheel, and that the RIGG STRAP® system can be securely fastened to your bike's frame or rack.

What does the RIGG STRAP® system do?

The RIGG STRAP® is a patented system designed to provide a secure and reliable method for mounting the saddlebags to your motorcycle.

Are the internal liners removable?

Yes, two lightweight internal liners are included, which can be removed for easy packing, unpacking, and cleaning.

How do purge valves help?

Purge valves allow you to easily release trapped air from the saddlebags after packing, enabling them to be compressed for a more streamlined fit.

Troubleshooting

Saddlebags not staying securely mounted

Ensure the RIGG STRAP® system is correctly installed and all straps are fully tightened. Check for any obstructions preventing a secure fit. Redistribute weight evenly between bags.

Water ingress despite roll closure

Verify that the roll closure is rolled tightly (at least 3-4 times) and securely fastened. Check for any damage to the material or seams that might compromise the seal.

Bags losing shape

Ensure the removable stiffeners and internal backplate are properly inserted and secured within the bags. Distribute weight evenly to support the bag structure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof protection for gear.
  • Durable construction built to last.
  • Secure and reliable mounting system.
  • Easy to clean and maintain exterior.
  • Sufficient capacity for touring essentials.

Cons

  • Requires proper mounting technique for optimal security.
  • May need additional straps for very large loads.
  • Stiffeners are removable, potentially leading to bag sag if not used.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Securely attach the saddlebags to your motorcycle using the patented RIGG STRAP® system. Ensure straps are tightened properly and the bags are balanced.
  2. Use the compression straps to further secure the bags and potentially attach additional gear.
  3. Insert removable stiffeners and the internal backplate to help the bags maintain their shape.
  4. Utilize the purge valves to release any trapped air for a more compact fit.

Compatibility:

These saddlebags are designed for most motorcycles. Ensure sufficient clearance between the bags and exhaust pipes, or rear wheel. The RIGG STRAP® system is versatile but may require adjustment based on your specific motorcycle model.

Care:

  • Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Ensure the roll closure is properly sealed after each use, especially in wet conditions.
  • Periodically check the integrity of the seams and straps.
