Munich, 12 March 2021. With the new Black Collection,
BMW Motorrad is adding soft luggage solutions to its broad portfolio.
They are the perfect biking complement for all weather conditions.
True to the motto "For man and machine", the collection was
developed based on the needs of BMW Motorrad customers. Whether tank
bag, rear bag or hip bag - all components of the extensive collection
feature functional, innovative and consistent design. You are sure to
find the perfect piece of luggage for every purpose and every
adventure in the large range.
Tank Bag Black Collection, large (GS)
The large
tank bag Black Collection made of durable, TPU
coated polyester fabric offers numerous clever details. In addition to
the lockable, rubberised and water-repellent two-way zip, the main
compartment features another zip to expand the volume from 13
to 18 litres. The removable inner bag with roll closure is
waterproof. Mesh compartments on the side walls in the main
compartment and an external pocket provide additional storage space.
Especially practical: The tank bag features a cable duct
and a waterproof clear compartment that permits the use of
technical devices with touch function.
The large tank bag is tailored to motorcycles with steeply
sloping tank shapes. It fits perfectly thanks to the anti-slip foam
pads on the underside. The tank bag is attached in conjunction with a
motorcycle-specific 3-point strap connection.
Plug-in fasteners at the front and back allow the tank bag to be
mounted and removed quickly, e.g. when refuelling.
The included backpack shoulder strap makes it easy to carry. With the
additional straps included, the versatile tank bag can also be
attached as a rear bag on the luggage rack and pillion seat. The
backpack is black with blue accents and blue lining to provide a
better overview of the interior. The lining is made of 100 percent
polyester.
