Crash Bar Bags Add Tremendous Space to Touring Harleys
As I got ready to go on a short trip this weekend, I thought it might be a good time to let you know about Harley’s Saddlebag Guard Bags or Crash Bar leather storage bags.
I have been using them for many years, and when I got my new Ultra Limited it was one of the items I wanted to install.

Sound has more impact on life than we know or credit it for. Sound is not just significant to humans but many lifeforms.
We now have turned sound to music. W have a whole range of music genres to choose from – for entertainment, for ‘edu-taiment’ of kids, for relaxing, for hitting the gym, for romantic night dinners, for wild parties and more.
In this article, there are also a few examples offered of some myths & inspirations from iconic Rock group ‘Creedence Clearwater Revival’ music & songs.
Often people assume meanings of songs based on lyrics, music style or other socio-cultural information from the period when a song first appeared.
ASK A TROOPER: “Motorcycle Riding Dog”
by Ryan Janke from https://kfgo.com/
Question: Can someone with a motorcycle permit have their small dog riding on the motorcycle or would that be considered a passenger? We have already purchased a helmet and leather jacket for this lucky pup! Thank you for your response.
Answer: First of all, where will this dog be seated and how? I see less issues if you are talking about a motorcycle side car or a motorcycle trailer equipped with a kennel. But if you are talking about on the actual motorcycle with you, I don’t think this would be very safe for you or your pet.
If you are going to carry a passenger, there are a few key items to keep in mind:
Equip and Adjust Your Motorcycle:
Passenger Preparation:
Getting On and Off the Motorcycle:
Passenger Safety Tips:

The slightly ridiculous 1800cc, two-cylinder, leather-saddlebag, CHiPs-windshielded cruiser I’m trying to force through six stopped lanes of Los Angeles traffic can’t be taken as anything but an admission on the part of the Bayerische Motoren Werke that Harley-Davidson knows
a) what boys like;
b) what men want …
in America, anyway.
Or Anywhere Else!

I recently had a lady friend discuss going on a trip with me and of course the issue of how much clothes and stuff she could bring came up.
I do have a bagger with a tour pack but it is full of camera equipment and the saddlebags are packed solid as well.
I went shopping and ended up with a Harley Davidson ONYX Touring Bag #93300013.

Koz Mraz takes the Large Sissy Bar Luggage on the road. Ideal for weeks of serious two-up touring.
I was looking for really large sissy bar luggage for weeks of serious two-up crusading in the northern U.S. These Vikings will be riding long stretches of open highways through desolate landscapes. There’s a wide variety of options, some I liked, some I didn’t. I didn’t want a top loading bag that made us dig to the bottom every time we needed a sweater. I wanted handy exterior compartments that could be easily accessed at stops and I needed space, lots of space for lots of stuff. I found Viking Bags.
