Follow the link below for a video review of a Viking Bags Axe Medium Motorcycle Backpack. The Viking Bags company sent it to me for me to review and this is my initial take. This video is just short of eight minutes. I will be doing a followup after I road test the backpack on a long ride in the coming weeks and will post it here.

The video has all the details and a close look, but a few highlights. Nice for a handle to be included, generous room in a sleek package, nice padding on the shoulder straps. Especially nice is a helmet sling – see the video for details. More as it becomes available…

For more information on their wide array of products, you should visit their websites to learn more about them. Go to VikingBags.com and VikingCycle.com.

You can also go straight to the Axe Medium Motorcycle Backpack I reviewed in the video above to review the specs. You can find terrific options for motorcycle sissy bar luggage. They also have a wide range of motorcycle saddlebags.

Stop by this blog to see a coming review of a special motorcycle jacket. You can find their general motorcycle jackets and their textile motorcycle jackets on their site as well.
