Comes with a YKK zipper



I believe it's way too easy to load; though Colt is widthy, but need to get used up to loading. But this one is damn easy as Nelsonrigg I suppose One thing to notice is that the stitches inside are superb + the straps are made invisible. I think Viaterra has two layers of interiors because the one you see below is very spongy. Now this means, I can probably have my camera lens unscratched if the lens cover opens up. The stitches at the bottom (where the straps for mounting) are totally invisible. Even Nelsonrigg has them visible



This was another defect in addition to the above zipper on both the sides of the strap that is tied to rear footrest (we'll get to that shortly); but I suppose this hardly matters because, this is the velco part that help the additional length of strap from hanging or tying up else where. Since there isn't any weight associated, I think I can live with it



Also notice the slight difference in the sides marked 1 & 2; this is the side that comes right behind the rider. Again, I think it hardly matters



And this is the outside that will be visible to others; notice how reflective the materials are



Though this is a tail bag, there're 2 clips, just like the clips provided on saddle bag like Colt. This also comes in handy if the zipper is broken or when things are too much to accommodate (for people who like to carry their house hehe) to simply pack tight & not using the zipper



This is one of the best part where the corner of the CLAW has plastic support; TWO thumbs up!!!



Marked below 1 to 6 are the places where the plastic tube shown above appears including the other side making it totally 12 of them. A & B (also appears the other side) are two additional sleep loops, which I don't know for what they're provided. May be for fastening with a bungee chord...if at all the straps give up...MAY BE???

The best are these... Left side is 1.5 liter bottle & right side is 1 liter bottle. I'm more than confident it can hold 2 X 2 liter bottles comfortably, that too on both sides. This means, I can actually carry 4 X 2 liters of water on both sides!!! That is 8 liters of water*



So I thought of testing something else...especially with this...





Along with this bag, I never got instruction as how to mount the bag; however, Viaterra provided me a LIVE SUPPORT through phone as how the bag is to be mounted on my CBR 250R - 5/5

So let me share as how... This is the side that is right behind the rider that has two straps each one to be fastened to the rear footpeg & tightened through the DClips. 1 goes to right side rear foot peg & 2 to the left. Now that secures the bag from moving from left & right




The best part is this one; this is the part visible to the others, and has only one strap instead of 2 (in Nelsonrigg). Here the strap from 2 has to be fastened to the tail of the bike & to be fastened to the DClip as provided at #1. I was skeptical as how the bag would hold & boom!!! What an idea Sirjee??? The bag simply didn't move a MILLIMETER!!! Now, I've only tested with an empty bag & just pulled the bike from side stand just by pulling the CLAW & there was absolutely no issues or whatsoever. I think this is far better than Nelsonrigg's 4 mount strap system

^^ but this can only be used for solo touring...

Saar...that's why I already said...TAIL BAGS

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

So after reading the whole thing I feel viaterra is the best in case of comfort as well as use. The cons are, can be used only for solo rides and not sturdy like the other one. But in all the other aspects this is the best.
Argee did you try to mount it on RX??
Is it possible to mount these on our RX with carrier?? I think there comes problem with strapping the whole thing. If not its great as you can pillion ride with the bag on carrier!!
But who does tour on RX, it's another question!

So the verdict is Viaterra. Am I right???

Please wait before you conclude. There's more on the way

Fantastic point; though I believe it can be done (as Viaterra tested on RE), I think it's best to work it out especially when I've Rx. Thanks for the suggestion & I'll try doing the exercise this Saturday

I'd love to

Aargee - I was about to buy Colt but now I am tilting towards Via Terra...thanks sir for the wonderful review...waiting for more (if there is something left).

There's lot more...please wait & Thank you very much for those Likes, I really Like & appreciate it

Waiting waiting... and like wise your time and effort to put out all the minutest of details is highly appreciated..

So, how long does it take to mount the bag? This is what I found; I remember it takes nearly the same time or little more to mount my Nelsonrigg with that Indian juggad



and to unmount, easy piece of work...

Was free for sometime on 29-Jan evening, thought why not test Claw with things that I would carry for a 7 day road trip?


Will Viaterra Claw hold all these? Even if it did, will it hold it as one? Even if it held as one, will the straps stay strong? Even if it stayed strong, will it be mounted on the motorcycle as it has to? Will the strap stay in one place? Will the Claw keep moving with all these weight? Stay tuned for the report...coming soon...

rynox sadddlebag is pretty good for bike like cbr250 .

Please compare the prices as well.

May be, but, like I said, I'm done with saddle bags; I'm all in for tail bags & tail bags only. My mantra has now changed to...

CARRY LIGHT, TRAVEL EASY

Frankly, I don't see the need to carry 3 bundles of bag unless one of them is camera, tenting kind of equipment or full tool kit & they know how to fix things with the bike.

Here you go...
