DrySpec™ D28 Dual-End motorcycle dry bag & D38 Rigid motorcycle dry bag by Twisted Throttle

Smart, Adaptable, and Super Durable
Whether commuting or trekking cross country, it is imperative that you keep your cargo dry.
Dry bags have been used by adventure riders for many years, but dry bag technology
hasn't kept up with the demands of serious motorcycle riders...until now.

DrySpec™ D28 and D38 dry bags
Inspired by military tactical gear, DrySpec™ dry bags are the toughest and most versatile dry bags on the market.
DrySpec dry bags come in two configurations; the D28 “Dual-end” dry bag and the D38 “Rigid” dry bag.
Save some money by buying both bags at the same time with the D66 Dry bag Modular Packing System.

DrySpec™ D38 waterproof motorcycle dry bag by Twisted Throttle



What makes the DrySpec™ D38 motorcycle dry bag better than other dry bags on the market?
Unlike other dry bags, the D38 features a rigid core,
which means that the bag functions more like a topcase than a traditional dry bag.
You can mount the D38 onto any motorcycle whether it has a rear rack or not.
The D38 can be mounted even when the bag is completely empty.
Try that with a traditional dry bag.

The rigid construction, in conjunction with the unique Slip-Lock Strap mounting system,
allows access without loosening straps or removing the bag from the bike.
The D38 slip lock strap system consists of four straps that feature a soft tie on one end
for attachment to the motorcycle and a slip lock buckle on the other end that attaches to
the sides of the bag. Cinch the straps and you’re off.

Another nice feature of the DrySpec™ D38 is the Contour Roll Top Seal that rolls down
to a fixed point with no excess material from the end of the roll.
This ensures a clean look and a perfect waterproof seal.

Included is a 4-in-1 Utility Strap that acts as a compression strap to help compact your
contents, a cargo strap to affix additional gear on top, a carrying handle, and a shoulder strap.
When not being used, toss the Utility Strap inside the bag.
The D38 is designed to accept the D28 Dual-End dry bag to create a modular unit capable of
carrying up to 66 liters of gear. Perfect for those longer trips, all without the need for top or sideracks.

DrySpec™ D38 Features:
· 100% Waterproof
· Measures 13"wide x 9"tall x 22"long
· 38 Liter capacity
· 18oz vinyl
· Coated Cordura
· Retro-reflective logo
· Infinitely useful daisy chain tie-down strips

DrySpec™ D28 waterproof motorcycle dry bag by Twisted Throttle




Traditional dry bags have a single access opening, which makes it difficult to get to all of your stuff.
The D28 features a Dual-End roll top design that allows access to contents without detaching the bag
from the motorcycle. Select which end you want to open and then simply release the two clips that
secure the rolled end. Unroll the bag and reach in to get what you need. Either end is accessible.
No need to loosen the mounting straps. Just unclip, unroll, grab, reroll, secure the clips, and go.

A 4-point Quick Connect Soft Tie Strap System is used to attach the bag to the motorcycle and
allows quick and easy mounting and removal. The D28 can be used on any motorcycle whether
it has a luggage rack or not.
You can mount the D28 parallel to the direction of travel or perpendicular across the passenger seat or on a rear rack.
You can also mount the D28 on top of existing side cases or atop the D38 Rigid dry bag . Whatever way you
choose, the result is a clean, low profile look.

DrySpec™ D28 Features:
· 100% Waterproof
· 9" wide x 9" tall x 22"long (average packed dimension)
· 28-30 Liter capacity
· 18oz vinyl
· Retro-reflective logo
· Infinitely useful daisy chain tie-down strips

I saw these at the IMS. They are nothing like what has been described or shown in the video.......they're better!!!!! For me, this may be one of the best set of dry bags out there in terms of reliable water tightness, functionality, and use/size.

I will be adding them shortly.

Just sayin'!

Definitely a candidate to replace the 'fizz' when that time comes. No pockets, but I suppose that's the tradeoff for being waterproof.

Sounds like you guys "get it"

What I like about these opposed to other motorcycle dry bags:
[list type=decimal]
[*]The rigid bag (D38) - You can put a thin mint in there and it is the same size and as easy to open without undoing the tie down straps as if the bag were full.
[*]The dual-ended bag (D28) - allows you to access both ends of the bag so you can pack a little more carelessly and you also don't have to unstrap the bag to access the contents.
[*]They attach to each other via a daisy chain and included strips.
[*]These strips also attach to the bike and allow quick removal for grab-n-go convienence.
[/list]

I was just notified about an hour ago that my two D28s had shipped from A Vicious Cycle in Ontario.

Of course, my bike isn't here, and I wouldn't be able to ride until April anyway .... sorry, never mind. I take it back. R ::008:: ::007::

Hey Kevin, any thoughts on how well a D28 fits on top of a Trax 37/45L box? I know you guys sell specific top bags for those but these are waterproof, which I'm not sure the other ones are.

is there any PVC used in the construction of these bags?
The instructions only say 'coated cordura and 18" vinyl' whatever that means.

What's your concern with the PVC...edjumacate me ::017::

Twisted Throttle DrySpec D-38

Received the D-38 a couple days ago. Tonight I loaded it my REI Half Dome tent (perfect fit), Footprint, Big Agnes sleeping bag, sleeping bag liner, Big Agnes Air Core, the included straps, and there is still more room for more. It is a true 22" long, 13" wide, and probably 11"-12" high (after it is fully loaded. Good looking bag. Opens and closes EASILY. Looks to be waterproof and I am sure I will get a chance to prove it. I am mounting it in the Valley created when the rear seat removed and the rear rack is lowered. This bag is well suited for the CA NV OR ID WA CAN AK MT WY ND SD CO UT, trip this summer. Good Purchase!

Thanks. Sounds like you made a great choice. Your choice if sleeping bags isn't too shabby either.

Do you mean like this?



We intentionally designed it to work well with sidecases. The daisy chain on the exterior of the bag make it super versatile.

I know you guys offer a "discount" if you buy the larger and smaller together. How about if you want two of the 28's - one for each side case?

Thanks,

Perfect. That setup right there is 138L (28+28+37+45) of storage without even using a top box. Wow. Kitchen sink, let's go camping!

Let me talk to the guys who make those decisions. No guarantees but I can ask.
