Saddlebags for motorcycles are not a new item. They have been around for 50 years. However back then they were more of a must have item than just a way to dress up a bike. Back then riders used them to store their very important items in, today those same saddlebags are used but they look much cooler and are much more attractive and they definitely cost a whole lot more.
The original purpose behind saddlebags was that they could really hold absolutely anything you might want, especially when the biker went on a long trip. The pockets of a riders jeans and shirts just could not fit everything a biker needed it too and these very handy type of saddlebags became a necessity for every single bike and rider out there.
Today, these same saddlebags are still available and are still a very important part of motorcycles, but you will find that there are currently two very different types available. The first type is a hard mounted one and the second type is a throw over the seat type. You really need to understand the two very different types so that you can easily figure out which one you would rather have for your bike.
Hard Mounted
These saddlebags for motorcycles are hard mounted onto motorcycles to secure them. With this method and this type you never have to worry about your bag flapping in the wind and causing a big distraction for the rider. When you purchase your bike they usually come with one already on the frame.
They are constructed of premium leather. You can choose which type of leather you want, and if you want it to be a soft, or hard leather. Most bikers prefer hard leather because it tends to last longer.
The Throw Over
Some people do not want to buy or install permanent bags to their bike and for these people this style works better. All a biker does is he just throws it over the seat and tightens the string to secure it and away he goes.
