Rahgear Recon Tank Bag
The Rahgear Recon is a 20-litre adventure touring tank bag engineered for long-distance riding, expandable to 25 litres when extra gear capacity is needed. Designed with a structured body that holds its shape whether fully packed or running light, the Recon provides stable, organized, and quick-access storage right in front of you.
20L Capacity, Expandable to 25L
Running light for a day ride or packing heavy for a multi-day tour? The Recon offers 20 litres of standard storage. When extra volume is required, unzipping the lower circumferential expansion zipper adds 5 litres of usable space (increasing height by approximately 6 cm) to carry additional touring layers, food, or gear.
Structured Main Compartment & Organization
Built with internal shaping reinforcement, the main compartment retains its shape whether fully packed or running light, supporting easier packing, unpacking, and gear access. The dedicated top lid compartment features internal mesh pockets and elastic loops to keep small essentials, cables, and tools neatly organized and instantly accessible.
Quick Access Pouch & Modular Top Panel
The Recon features a removable and repositionable Quick Access Pouch that can be mounted on the external Velcro panel for quick access, or moved to the internal Velcro panel for internal storage and a cleaner exterior. The top surface features a laser-cut modular Velcro attachment panel for compatible attachments, patches, and personalization.
Universal Strap Mounting
The Recon mounts using a quick-release strap mounting system designed to work across a wide range of motorcycles without relying on magnetic attachments. Front buckles are positioned at the sides for easier refuelling, and front and rear strap retainers help keep mounting straps positioned when the bag is removed from the motorcycle.
Side Utility & Rain Cover Storage
Utility is built into both sides of the Recon: one side provides external storage with a mesh pocket for receipts and small items, while the opposite side incorporates a glove holder and carry handle. A dedicated rear pocket stores the included external rain cover for quick deployment when needed.
Backpack Carry Conversion
When stepping away from the motorcycle, tuck-away shoulder straps deploy from the base to provide an off-bike backpack carrying configuration.

- Rear Straps: Secure the rear mounting straps and adjust until the bag sits firmly against the tank.
- Tensioning: Tighten all straps evenly to prevent unnecessary movement.

Rider Tip
