Throw Over Saddlebags vs Bolt On Saddlebags

The two main categories for motorcycle saddlebags are throw-over vs bolt-on options. The difference is pretty self-explanatory, but the pros and cons may surprise you. The versatility and ease of installation associated with throw-over saddlebags means they're less secure, so you may not want to leave the mon your bike while it's unattended for too long. Conversely, bolt-on options can't be swiped off your bike as easily, but if you ever wanted to take them in to protect them against the weather or secure what's inside behind locked doors, you may have a harder time getting them off the bike than their throw-over cousins.

Regardless of which style you choose, saddlebags remain one of the the most useful an aesthetically pleasing luggage options for motorcycle riders. Their enduring presence in the world of two wheels speaks to their timeless style and undeniable utility.
