Great bags, they hold several tools and gear, and they look good
So far so good. I've had these bags for about a month and a half. Installation of the C-Bow brackets was simple and I really like the locking system. The capacity was what I was looking for and I like the way that they open wide. I've received several compliments on the way they look on my 2024 Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster.
These bags are easy on/easy off, spacious, and look every bit fantastic. If I had to ding them it would be in the lock, I was expecting a turn of the key would grab multiple spots along the C-bow, instead of the single, rather unassuming spot. But this sounds like a "me issue" and assume Hepco knows exactly what they are doing
Great service! I received the Hepco- Becker saddle bags and C mounts 2 days after placing the order. Couldnt be more pleased!
I wish I could give the five star rating. I really like these bags but I have two relatively small complaints that need airing. First, the brackets were back ordered from Germany I assume and took several weeks to arrive. Moto machines was quick to respond to my inquirys but I had to initiate any correspondence. A simple heads up from them would have been appreciated.
Lastly, the stitching on one of the bags started coming apart on my first outing with them, opening up a 2 gap at the seam next to the zipper. I notified the seller and they responded very quickly with an apology and a solution. They shipped a new bag immediately with instructions on how to return the defective one. Very pleased with their service and efficiency in dealing with this issue. Would definitely buy from them in the future. The bags are the perfect size for my small caliber KTM and look great on it.
I like these bags. I recently lost one due to negligence on my part so I ordered a new set. I originally bought these bags for a 2020 Triumph Speedmaster but didn't like them on that bike and set them aside. Two years later I bought a Triumph T-120 Black and they look great on that bike. They are big enough to hold any essentials one might need riding and come with waterproof bags to protect important articles from rain. The zippers that give access to the bags have eyelets that line up so one can use a small padlock to lock the bags. There is a small pocket in each bag that you can put important articles such as the registration or other articles one might need quick access to. They are well thought out bags that are pleasing in appearance but also are unobtrusive.
This is the second set of Hepco Becker C-Bow mount bags I've purchased from Moto Machines. The personalized service from Moto machines is unparalleled. The engineering and quality of hepco Becker bags is also Superior. The directions written in both German and English leave a little bit to be desired, but with a little bit of mechanical aptitude, one can figure it out. It would be really helpful for hepco Becker to create YouTube videos for their products related to specific bike applications. You can't go wrong with Moto machines or Hepco Becker.
I just installed these bags on my '22 Triumph Bonneville T100 and am very happy with how the look and convenience turned out. The mounting system was a little tricky to install but with patience came together with no problem.
Nice bags - fit the rack and bike perfectly.
I purchased the Street Reloaded bags nearly ten years ago from Moto Machines. The C-Bow mounts fit perfectly on my BMW F800R and have remained solid and tight. I have used these bags on a number of tours. The bags continue to hold up well, still look good, never loosen on their mounts, clear the exhaust without heat issues, and importantly, always remain dry regardless of hours of heavy rain at high speed on the road--even with the zippered expansion panels deployed, Finally, though the bags have never loosened, I like the safety clip on top--it provides a nice piece of mind that I won't lose a bag on the road.
Great bag system, highly recommend.
Great quality bags, easy install and fit to the C-bow carriers.
Really top quality. Easy to mount and remove.

I own a set of the Royster bags already.
The Reloaded offer way more storage. How can they be the same size???
They come with waterproof bags and you will need them! Rain penetrate this material fairly easily. Not so with the Royster bags.
The Royster bags are made of a denser, pre-shaped shell mold. Truly clamshell. They also come with drybags installed. You have to install them in the Reloaded bags.
The Reloaded bags are lighter, expand, and have a nice connector strap that fits under the passenger seat for added support.
If I could combine the two I would -
The more rigid, water resistant Royster construction.
The more rugged zippers of the Royster bags.
The Roysters external zippered pouches.
The expandability and shape of the Reloaded.
The connective top strap of the Reloaded.
The drybags from the Royster.
The reflective triangles of the Royster bags (AWESOME)
The Reloaded have mesh pockets built into the lids but they're very loose. They should be made of stretch material but they're not. They're also rendered useless when you install the drybags. So overall, a crap idea. Whatever you put in the side pocket will get wet! The Royster external zippered pouches were/are ideal for my tire repair kit, air pump (Walmart), battery cables (Aerostitch catalogue) without really intruding on interior space. The drybags are also nicer and have cinch strap closures.
Basically I like the Royster bags better but trade off for better volume for trips the store.
The Royster shape limits capacity when grocery shopping. The Reloaded does not. I can put a half gallon of milk standing up in the Reloaded with room on top. Not so with the Royster.
The Royster drybags are larger than the bags themselves and I have on occasion left the bags open to hold more groceries and cinch the bags and zip the side to tighten the load. The zippers on the Royster bags is way more durable than the Reloaded zippers.
I could probably easily put 2 gallons of milk and then some in just one side alone of the Reloaded and zip them shut easily. If these are only like a litre larger than the Royster it's night and day what will fit in the Reloaded compared to the Royster. SHAPE MATTERS!
So, not only do you get a review but a comparison as well. Maybe Hepco Becker will listen to this. I didn't mind that Royster bags cost more, but the construction and all the things I mentioned above, if applied to the Reloaded bags, would be the shit!
I live on a different state where the bike is so I pack these up at home and use them as carry on on the plane on my way over.
Light but sturdy and being able to lock them is a great security feature. Look small but its amazing all you can pack in these. Definitely recommend.
All good
Street Reloaded Bags are incredible.
Wider, than what I had before [SW Motech Blaze], but still within my mirrors & bars.
Of all the C-Bow Bags, I like these the best, because of the White Piping, that looks great with a White Bike.
That White Piping is also reflective, which makes night-riding safer.
Another great feature is the expansion zipper, which was very handy, on my last trip.
(Pic shows them fully packed & expanded)
The bags are for the money very good bags. Turns out they are a bit smaller than desired but I will still use them for short daytime when I want to carry cameras etc. Well designed and appreciate the free waterproof covers.
My only complaint is the bag could be a bit bigger, i.e., deep enough to accommodate a laptop computer. Other then that, easy to install, and superbly made.
Easy to install and ruggedly well designed
C-bow system and these bags were great on my last road trip. No problems, works as advertised and stays on the bike well. In hindsight, would prefer the higher version with external zipper pockets, but still fine for my needs.
These are the OG guys I bought back in the day for my bike, they are awesome.
These bags do just what their supposed to with value
Perfect size for the 2018 Triumph Speedmaster.
Great quality bags
A great product! Combined with the mounting system, very easy on and off, locking system works great!
the third purchase. it's wonderful. also it is the purchasing plan (z1000)
The Street-Soft bag system is excellent! Works in concert with H&B C-Bow mounts, sold separately. Easy fitment, sturdy, rain covers included for the real monsoons, easy on/off. The Tuono 1000R is a very hard bike to find decent luggage for and I don't like the typical "sack of potatos" look of most soft luggage. This system is great though. Highly recommended as is Motomachines. Good service and very helpful.
