    Re: Viaterra CLAW, Nelson-Rigg Spirit 30 & Cramster Colt - Review

    Uploaded pics of our goa trip with the viaterra claw. it was a 4 day trip and the bags were filled up to the max. The bag was used only on day1 and day4 journey (~450 km each)
    None of us had any problems with the bag, apart from slight loosening of the straps, but the bag did not move about while riding. The bungee cords were added as a precaution.

        No NS specific details. You have three straps on the bag.

        1. Connects to the Left side pillion footrest mount
        2. Connects to the Right side pillion footrest mount
        3. Loops around from under the tail

        As a precaution we added 2 bungee cords across the bag, since this was the first time we were using the bag

            WHat makes Viaterra a Preferred choice - Review

            So, coming to the positive sides of it after using it for few more rides:

            First and foremost, the material that have been used to make this product: This makes the product differentiable. You touch it and you can feel it. In addition, the chains are very strong. Strong enough to endure any stress put on it.

            The bag can comfortably accommodate items required for a 4-5 days' trip. Plus, I comfortably carry one litre engine oil (15w50) which is required for top ups, if required. It has a transparent upper surface bag which can keep the necessary documents inside it. The surface of this pocket is plastic which eliminates the chances of water droplets in getting in. Thumbs up for this.

            The bag's material is good in one more way. It saves the backside of the pillion rider. We have tested with few more saddlebags and found that VIaterra is better. Why we said this is on a ride which is of more than 700 km per day, the material on which you are sitting becomes the deciding factor on whether your backside skin will burn more or less. Well, Viaterra rocks in this aspect.

            Coming back with more reviews..Soon

                        Used via terra claw recently for my Udaipur Ride and here is a short review about it.
                        1. Waterproofing is awesome in this bag while driving to Mumbai on 7th from pune & while coming back Mumbai on 10th it sustained and kept dry all the stuff inside it... Seriously impressed.
                        2. Capacity is also very very good as we carried stuff for 2 people for 4 days ( 2 jeans, 4 T-shirts, 4 bottles of water on either side , other personal stuff , one riding pant, camera and other more stuff) still it got a space to carry gifts back to pune for my family.
                        3. Mounting on the bike is simple and very good.
                        4. Stability of the luggage on bike during whole journey is important and this product got that also.
                        Only thing is you have to keep luggage of equal weight either side.

                        This via terra claw is like a light weight pillion (girl)😊 sitting behind you and giving you back support also😉

                        Truly awesome product 👍Click image for larger version

                          Dude, how was the balance during the ride?? I mean, does it tilt in corners due to object movement and thus pulling the bike to that side? - any different feeling during the ride that you can distinctively describe.

                          Reviews have been positive so far,,, still waiting for aargee Sir's elaborate review. It is due for this month, err, I guess. @aargee

                            The bag does not move about while driving. The straps do a good job of holding the bag in place even if it is filled to the brim.

                            If you pack your stuff well inside the claw, you will not notice any weight transfer while turning/leaning.

                            Only difference is the shift in center of gravity, similar to a riding with a pillion
