Streamline-style bags for Triumph Rocket 3 GT/R

[AlexCustomBags]

Hi guys! Many of you know me from the Alex Custom Bags website and have asked me to create bags for the new Triumph Rocket 3 model; I’ve finally decided to go ahead with it. I have a vision for a design that won't spoil the bike's aesthetics but will instead feature a sleek, streamlined look! Don't expect massive storage capacity—these bags are designed to be truly sporty. I also plan to offer two mounting options: one compatible with the Hepco & Becker C-Bow system and another compatible with the original Triumph mounts. The hard-shell bags will be made of fiberglass, and I may incorporate premium carbon fiber elements as well. Please feel free to ask any questions or share your suggestions.
Best regards, Alex.

Would be great if they were 25L at least (bigger than the Hepco & Becker bags) and were able to support a 11"-13" laptop. The current Triumph bags do this. Also, need to be waterproof or sealable, no sense getting there and everything is soaked, nor is it great to have to pack everything in additional (space claiming) internal bags. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

Thanks for your comment! Naturally, the cases will be watertight and made from lightweight materials like fiberglass or carbon fiber; they can be painted to match the motorcycle so the whole setup looks integrated. As for size, I’m aiming for a 25-liter capacity. What do you think about adding an electronic locking system? That would require running wiring—which is tricky to handle without an electrician—so maybe I should stick to a mechanical lock? In any case, I want the lock to be invisible, keeping the lid smooth.
