Small But Mighty — Perfect for Tight Cockpits.
The Switchback is our smallest tank bag — built primarily for enduro and light dual sport motorcycles. Perfect when you only need the essentials, or when a bigger bag just won’t play nice with your bike’s size and cockpit layout.
Compact, Out of the Way
The trapezoidal front profile tapers away from your legs, staying clear whether you’re standing on the pegs, leaning into a corner, or threading through rocky switchbacks.
Purpose-Built for Essentials
Sized perfectly for your keys, wallet, small camera, and a couple of trail snacks. The light-colored interior helps you spot what you need fast—no more digging in a black hole for your chapstick.
Features a padded main compartment, an exterior zippered mesh pocket for quick-grab items, and a top shock cord to stash small gear during breaks—keeping your essentials organized and close at hand.
Trail-Ready Before the Coffee Hits
Installs quickly using the same universal three-strap system as our Big Sky and High Basin tank bags — two to the rear subframe, one around the steering neck. Swap bags as your needs change with only minor strap adjustments! A non-slip backing helps the Switchback stay planted through every bounce, slide, and whoop section.
Trail Tip: When in doubt, pack snacks. You can always trade trail mix for tools later.

Manuals
Used on one trip so far. Worked pretty good on a 24 KTM with a 4 gallon tank. Had to modify the straps a little to fit where I wanted it. Built well and should hold up for a long time. Handy to have the wallet and a few small items that you can get at easily.
I enjoy the bag it's small and out of the way you just put what you going to use for the day and it tucks immediately and was nice about it is you don't need to remove it to put gas into the bike I bought it I'm happy with it so will you
Tough tank bag that sits great on my Yamaha WR250R and 3.0 Gal IMS tank! Perfect size for keys, phone and wallet etc. Well made and extremely durable! Easy to remove when bike is cleaned. Like the mesh pocket and bungee tie-down cord. Excellent tank bag at a good price!
