I ordered this for a project bike (to put a battery in for a Honda CT90 EV project). I expected something less than nice, just to surround my battery on the rack, but this is actually a pretty nice tail bag for less than $20! 12 liters. About 13Lx9Hx9W. Could fit an helmet if security is not an issue. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0946PNXXW?ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details&th=1&fbclid=IwAR0bMO2B_aq0Ex8N2OsdlPgehtO8b9jvAH2IUcyfvmpiP9TheMOFV8x8Ric

Bicycle bits are always cheaper than motorcycle accessories. If you bought it from Dennis Kirk it would probably cost $75.

Bicycle bags is how I found it. My battery is 12Lx8Wx5.5H and I kept looking till I found one that worked. Fortunate that it was cheap and not labeled largely with crap.

In their defense however, Dennis Kirk is one of my favorite sources. They have many varieties of Mikuni carbs that were important parts of previous motorcycle projects. Also, I have bought tires and tubes thru them. Their prices were good for these items. I'd rather buy from a real place rather than ebay or amazon for important stuff.

I always buy dirt bike gloves for mountain biking as they're cheaper than gloves from the bicycle shop.

Just a heads-up to anyone planning on using this with a Vespa rack: it doesn't fit.
