K'Rugged side bags
A new entry in the K'Rugged line from Kappa shown at EICMA are the 100% waterproof AV07 side bags that can be assembled and disassembled in seconds with its Monokey quick-fixing plate system. These cases adapt perfectly to Enduro and Maxi Enduro motorcycles
They are enclosed within a durable shell and offer a total load capacity per pair of up to 54 litres (27 litres each). Equipped with a side and front spring system, the case configuration can be customised. They can be attached to tubular side-case holders and the design of these bags ensures that they do not interfere with the bike's exhaust nor are they exposed to gas.
The construction of the outer shell is a complex mix of polyester 1680D with high-tenacity PU coating, PP board on the back (plate zone), EVA on the front and side, tarpaulin, Hypalon - all UV-resistant technical materials. The inner bag is entirely made of tarpaulin.
Their features include a roll top closure system, removable plastic reinforcement bottom to stiffen the bags' bottom, Security Lock mechanism and straps with hook-and-loop fasteners at the end.
The length of the bags is 43 cm from top to bottom (but can be extended further with roll top); length with open top cover is 60 cm, width 40 cm and the main body depth 15 cm. They weigh 0.65 kg each, the weight of the plate that goes on the motorcycle frame is 2.4 kg.
Other features are an ergonomic handle, a high frequency welded waterproof bag (IPX5 impermeability rating, resistant to heavy rain and extreme conditions), a removable plastic shaper inside to keep the bottom of the bag stiff and reflective prints for greater visibility.
