How to put a bag on a motorbike in Vietnam

[@kosasigwalo1895]

watch your speed though, especially when your bags are heavy or your handlebars will wobble at high speed. one youtuber had an issue with wobbling handlebars every time he runs 60+ kph and so he took it to a mechanic, turned out the culprit was his topbox. he removed the box and the problem's gone though I'm sure there are better ways to solve it without losing the box, like, a counterweigh perhaps.

Basically every traveler overpacks (by alot). I have some blog articles on this topic.

Hi John, I was wondering, on the road trip and you happened to see a nice place you want to see, so you pulled over to explore. My question is... How safe is it to leave your bag on the bike while you do exploring, or do you take your bag with you, that would be so heavy carrying the bag around while exploring. Thanks Hugh

I don't think it is safe to pull up on the side of the road and walk off. For the bike safety apart from anything. Generally when I drive, I drive and I drive hard. These days I often stop in locations about mid day, get a hotel, drop the bag and then have a "no bag day" until evening. I think this is a better way to do it.

I bought the Honda Winner X 2019 and have been looking for storage options. My first bike in Vietnam was a Yamaha Nouvo automatic but it had storage and a typical mounting bracket. Any idea what types of sturdy saddlebags would fit the Winner X?

You can buy Givi boxes, either side box or top box chrunix.com/accessories/luggage-backpacks.html The problem is, they add a lot of weight to the motorbike. But overall, they work.

As long as it's 15kg or less you should be fine with it
