- New for 2019 is the Nelson-Rigg Commuter Lite Motorcycle Tail Bag! This offers new features, updating the existing line from Nelson-Rigg with some welcome changes. It's the perfect size for smaller bikes, where you don't want or need the full size capacity or footprint.

Very nice that manufactures actually listen!
I was about to order another bag until I watched this. Thank you. Mine's on the way for the small rack behind the sissy bar on my sportster.
Love love love my Nelson Rigg! Use it everyday! Fits everything I need!
Thanks for another great review. I bought the ST after you recommended it and its been great. I had always used a backpack and netting on my Bandit 600 and that worked ok but when I got my FZ-09 last spring the backpack and netting just was not going to work anymore. The ST will fit all the stuff that I take to work and while Im at work it protects my helmet.
Thanks for the video. Helped me make my decision to purchase this bag. Fits great on my 2018 R1.
A very helpful review. I've been looking for a good tail bag for my '07 Night Rod I purchased a few months ago. A big thank you.
Thank you for your review. We are glad you liked the bag.
Interesting, kinda hard to tell the difference between the Commuter Lite bag and the Commuter Sport bag. It seems Bryan has the Sport version and not the Lite version.
I have the second version of the Commuter Sport tail bag (Nelson Rigg CL-1060-S) and had the first version (Nelson Rigg CL-1060) before that. I personally prefer the old method of strapping over this new method. Like Bryan, I never have a need to remove the tail bag from my motorcycle so having the ability to easily unbuckle it is not a feature I need. In addition, removing the CL-1060-S version from the seat wasn't that big of a deal. Most importantly for me though, the CL-1060-S version made it hard for anyone to unbuckle it and take off with it. Also the improvements made to this version seem minor compared to the improvements made in the second version over the first version. The second version fixed two major issues -- how the expansion was done and giving the ability to put a (small) lock on it. While Bryan is correct that anyone can cut into the bag or cut the straps to easily steal the bag, I've had a bicycle stolen that had a U-lock on it, so security is always about being a deterrent and not a guarantee.
Anyway, I would only recommend the Sport version of this bag. The Touring version is much too big (as Bryan demonstrates) nor has features a touring version should have (like external pockets and more organization features). The Lite version is only a little bit smaller than the Sport version. I'm baffled why they introduced this version, especially with the expansion feature.
@@CaFeMotoX_ Thank you for your feedback. He does have the new commuter lite.
@@Nelsonriggusa Do you ship to Canada??
@@kellyjudd928 Not at this time but we do have resellers up there. Please email us info@nelsonrigg.com and we can help you find one.
Will this fit on my luggage rack? Don't want it on the pillion seat. Bike is BMW F750GS Thanks
I've got the older version, and it was really great!
Just purchased based on this video...I like it!
I got the 'sport' size in the new range and love it. A tip for those worried about the security of the four quick release clips. Once clipped up, I wrapped each of mine with a few rounds of black 'self amalgamating' or 'weld' tape. It's no more secure in reality... but it disguises the really obvious snap on/off clips to a passer by 'quick knock off' merchant. Obviously this would only suit if you intend leaving the bag semi - permanently fixed. Great gear love it! Cheers for the review.
Thanks for the vid! Hope your having a good day
Great review.
I laughed at the comments about padlocks and knives when it's easy as squeezing 4 clips to undo the entire bag. Lol
Otherwise, these are great bags. Know a few people with them and they've held up great. Will be getting one for myself soon, but thinking of the Touring size for camping purposes
its also laughable since you can easily take it with you. They can't steal anything if it's not left behind.
You'd have to be extremely lazy to not want to carry it with you. I think it takes me longer to take off helmet and gloves than to unbuckle this thing.
Great video!
Dude, badass review! Thanks! I’m thinking this will be absolutely perfect for transporting a full size handgun.. then the bag acts as a concealed carry bag for quick draws if ever needed
Just bought one from Amazon,amazing quality!
Going to use it on the rack of my BMW GS310....
Noice review Bryan! I have the original smaller size for the CB1100..may have to check this bag out!
I nixed the ST bag on my CB1100. It was just too big and took away from the look of the bike. I went with a black bungee net for now. This new one is still too tall for my CB1100 IMO. I may get this bag for my FJR if my old ST version bag doesn't fit well on the pillion or rack. All one should be carrying on the CB1100 is their registration and insurance 😂.
I use the larger Commuter Touring Tail Bag on my FJR since my side bags are rarely used. The bag carries the bike cover, then holds the helmet when parked. It's 2023, use an alarm and keep it covered!
Love you youtube input. I have a gen 3 the same as yours would this bag fit on the rear rack. Regards Mick
Great video which size bag is this in the video...they have three sizes?
Brian - please review HD's new FXDR. I would love to hear your take on it.
I'm getting one for my FJR :D
You have given me an idea. I am always looking for a back rest for the driver. I am about to purchase an FJR 1300 just like yours 2014. Do you think it would be possible to mount one of those Nelson Rigg bags,Stuffed with foam, and use it as the drivers back rest? Or have you found a back rest in any other fashion for your FJR?
can you fit a helmet inside it when expanded?
Will this fit on my luggage rack? Don't want it on the pillion seat. Bike is BMW F750GS Thanks
Great product, btw do you ship to Malaysia ?
Same bag I got but had to alter how was mounted.
What a nice review! Too bad I just bought Ogio Tailbag which isn’t semi rigid, so doesn’t hold its shape and it can’t work as a Backpack.
Love my CL-1060-R, I know the point of this bag is for on/off but I would really love strap connector options to be under the seat. I worry when I nip into a shop and leave the bag on the bike, no point padlocking the zip when someone would rather just unclip the whole bag and be gone. Looks great on the bike.
I wonder how well this would fit on an Indian scout with a luggage rack?
Razor knive just unclick the 4 buckles....I looped my straps around the frame below my pillion seat.
Just an info. . A little bag .. for drive with a passenger?
Thank for the review! This is exactly what I'm looking for. I live about 5 miles from Angeles Crest (west coast equivalent to Tail of the Dragon), and I can't stand having to wear a backpack just to carry my wallet and a couple of 20oz water and/or Mtn.Dew bottles. Especially since my Dainese suit has a race hump with heat extractor on it and the backpack block the extraction ports so it gets hot in summer. Just by the look of it, should be the same size as my Z1000's pillion seat.
Nice bag, will it fit on the luggage rack if your FJR? I ride a R1200r LC and would prefer to have it on my rack.
I wonder about the rack as well
Nice
Could you share the inside dimensions - width, length and the two heights? If width changes from front to back, share both those width measures?
Thanks.

I may get one for my 2014 FJR instead of a trunk .
Does it fit on the rack as well?
I have a zx14r and thinking of getting one of these. In your opinion would you go with the smaller option here (Commuter lite) or the midsize option (Sport Version)?
so which one did you get? as i too have a zx14 and am wondering the same
@@rud8051 Didn't get one. Ended up using a backpack instead if needed.
I just bought a Sony x900h TV and recently looked up settings on youtube and watched a random helpful video. Imagine my surprise when I just bought this bag and looked up reviews on it and found this video... 🤯What else do I own that you made a youtube video on? 😄
Lol do you smoke cigars? ;)
@@TwoWheelObsession Maybe once a year!
So with those clip straps, there is nothing stopping someone from stealing the bag off the bike?
nope
For anyone listening this just barely fits a vitpilen 401 rear seat. Some over hang. Hope to post a review soon.
Do you think the Commuter Lite can fit a rain suit?
Oh yeah
I think it’s funny that you say the thrives will need a razor knife. They just need to unclip the bag from the bike and take the whole thing lol
Looks kinda small. Can it fit spare visor?
Lol that’s the whole point, to be small. Yes it can.
Can you fit a pair of shoes in the commuter lite?
Yep
@@TwoWheelObsession sweet thanks
hi bryan did you read my comment on ur heal tech vid
I replied yesterday
Can it fit a Helmet though?
Adam Games the Nelson Rigg Touring tail bag can fit a helmet. I have the Touring, I might also buy this lite
@@sailingyemaya9781 are the buckles in the same spot for all sizes? It would be nice to be able to switch between them without needing to readjust, so you can switch to a smaller bag if you don't need a lot of stuff.
Can I fit a face shield?
Yes
? A bit confused about the size difference comment. Yeah...it's smaller........it's a smaller bag it won't hold as much stuff. .....or am I missing something?
can you fit your leather jacket in it?
No
By far de most stupid strap mechanism there's has been 🤦🏻♂️ makes me regret buying the case
So hes getting paid to advertise products by manufacturers?
Lol nope not paid on this one :)
Dude, badass review! Thanks! I’m thinking this will be absolutely perfect for transporting a full size handgun.. then the bag acts as a concealed carry bag for quick draws if ever needed
