The cargo bags are characterized by a non-slip material bottom and an attachment system different from all the other bags previously developed by GIVI. This is a quicker system which also allows you to place the attachment in different positions depending on your needs. The XL02 and XL03 are designed to be used as backpacks, once the motorcyclist has parked the motorbike and there is also a targeted division of the spaces, making them also comfortable travel bags. There are three compartments: the first is waterproof thanks to the internal removable bag in heat-taped ripstop nylon/PU with IPX5 water resistance, developed in red to facilitate visibility of the contents, the second is extendable and accessible from one of the two front zips and the third it is designed as an "organizer" pocket.
Moving on to the tank bags, there are two examples: the specific XL04 and XL05 and the universal XL06.
The XL04 specifications for BMW R1200/1250, GS/Adventure and the KTM 1290 Adventure S and R GS and XL05 for Africa Twin and Africa Twin Adventure feature an ergonomic design that distinguishes them from the Ultima-T models. These are bags defined on the respective motorbikes and allow you to always have a clear view of the screens and do not interfere with the closing of the handlebar steering.
All tank bags feature a semi-rigid thermoformed EVA bottom and lid and a map holder with a Fidlock® magnetic attachment point and two buckle points.
