Frequently
Asked Questions

Do I need a tank bag for daily rides?

Not always, handlebar packs or small magnetic tank bags work great for essentials.

Which luggage is best for weekend trips?

The Claw Mini or Element 35L offer plenty of space without overwhelming the bike.

Is a side-stand shoe necessary?

Yes, CB350 RS stands are narrow and can sink on soft ground.

Are riding denims good enough for protection?

Absolutely, if equipped with CE2 armour like ViaTerra Austin Denims.

Can I travel with a pillion and luggage?

Yes - for pillion rides, saddlebags are the best and safest luggage solution, and a tank bag can be added for easy access to essentials.
