At Schmidt Motos, we live and breathe motorcycles — and that means we’re picky about the gear we trust. Whether it’s long hauls, short commutes, or late nights in the shop, we rely on equipment that works as hard as we do.

That’s why we’re teaming up with Viking Bags, a company known for building luggage and backpacks designed specifically for riders who demand performance, durability, and clean design.

About Viking Bags
Viking Bags has built a solid reputation in the motorcycle community for creating high-quality luggage — from hard saddlebags to tactical backpacks and tail bags. Their gear is built to take abuse, resist weather, and make packing for any ride easier.

What Caught Our Eye
We’ll soon be testing the 32L Trident Large Motorcycle Backpack — a versatile, tough-looking setup that fits perfectly with our ride-and-wrench lifestyle. Once it arrives, we’ll be putting it through its paces to see how it holds up to Kansas winds, shop days, and long rides.

What’s Next
This collaboration gives us the chance to test gear that fits the needs of real riders. Once the Trident Backpack arrives and we’ve tested it, we’ll post our full, honest review — no marketing fluff, just real-world results.

Stay tuned for photos, results, and feedback once it lands at the shop.
