Kriega Motorcycle Backpacks
Kriega motorcycle backpacks span zipped day packs, compartment-specific dry storage and expandable travel designs. Choose the storage arrangement first, then compare harness adjustment and the items actually included.
Know the range
R 20 is a zipped 20L pack. R 22 provides 18L of waterproof main storage within 22L total. Current R 25 V 2 product KRU25-2 changes the older R 25 story with a waterproof 20L roll-top main compartment and 5L quick-access pocket; reject an older zip-open listing when that new layout is the reason to buy.
Compare the details
Trail 9 and Trail 18 divide dry storage from zipped space. The Trail 18’s 1L dry pocket is inside its 7L section, so do not add it again to the 18L total. MAX 28 product KRU28 expands from 22L to 28L, but its waterproof claim applies to the laptop pocket. Its current US and global laptop dimensions conflict, so use the conservative US rectangle unless the exact regional item resolves it.
Check the package
Roam 34’s technical table expands from 26L and 200mm depth to 34L and 260mm depth, while other official copy uses 22–30L wording. Its 15-inch laptop claim lacks a numeric pocket rectangle, and the supplied sissy-bar strap is not universal mounting approval. Treat reservoirs, laptop sleeves and protector inserts as exact-package checks.

KriegaKriega Roam 34
Roam 34’s technical table gives 26–34L total, while other official copy uses 22–30L expansion wording. Its waterproof laptop pocket protects a specific storage area; expansion does not turn the rest of the pack into dry storage.
