Best Luggage For Aprilia Tuareg 660

Best Luggage For Aprilia Tuareg 660

If you have got an Aprilia Tuareg 660 at your disposal then it would be a waste to not put it through its paces on a motorcycle tour. After all, it is considered one of the most attractive mid-sized adventure motorbikes on the market.

So, once you have decided where your next adventure is going to be and secured yourself a shiny new Tuareg, it is time to find the best motorcycle luggage to go with it. The good news? You have come to the right place to do just that.

Why Choose Aprilia Tuareg 660?

Released in 2021, the Tuareg 660 was developed as a direct competitor to the Yamaha Ténéré 700 with Aprilia seeking to establish a foothold in the mid-sized adventure motorcycle market. The Italian manufacturers’ ethos is to not accept the bar set by others and have stated that the Tuareg offers the benchmark performance in all conditions and terrains.

As such, the Tuareg 660 was designed to be robust, offering maximum comfort and control both on and off the roads whilst remaining lightweight, fun and sporty. Aprilia have taken the engine that was tried and tested in their RS 660 sport bike and naked Tuono 660 and fine-tuned it here for optimal performance when carrying luggage and travelling on the more rough and ready surfaces.

Why Consider SHAD Motorcycle Luggage?

In order to match their motorcycle, many Tuareg 660 owners turn to Aprilia’s own luggage and in all honesty, it is clear to see the reasoning behind that. However, the fact that it is popular does not mean it is the best option.

Aprilia luggage is largely produced by SW Motech, a brand that simply cannot compete with SHAD, as shown in our SW Motech vs SHAD motorcycle panniers blog. For the most part, both brands’ luggage is waterproof but that is essentially where the similarities end. With their top boxes and panniers, SHAD have more options, larger storage capacities in most cases and come with security locking systems included.

SW Motech luggage may seem more cost-effective at first glance but when you factor in the fact that their locking systems, carry handles and rain covers (for non-waterproof luggage) are sold separately, the costs soon add up. The price hikes do not end there either, Aprilia then take the same luggage cases and charge more premium prices for what is simply just the addition of their logo.

This is something you will certainly not find with the frustratingly cumbersome magnets or straps that are commonplace with the alternative tank bags out there.

Combine that degree of convenience with the addition of waterproof rain covers, secure locking system and internal capacities ranging from 3-13 litres and it is clear to see why SHAD offer the best tank bags around. Any of the click system tank bags are going to be a game-changer and a welcomed addition to the Tuareg 660 and the choice really just comes down to how much storage space you require.

Once you have acquired an Aprilia Tuareg 660, all that remains is finding luggage capabke of supporting it on a trip.
