SW-MOTECH V-LOC System: A New Era for Motorcycle Saddlebags
Easy Installation, Strong Grip – The New V-LOC
With the new V-LOC System, SW-MOTECH introduces an innovative solution for saddlebags at EICMA 2025. This magnetic-mechanical system allows for one-handed attachment—secure, intuitive, and aesthetically pleasing. A new chapter in motorcycle luggage transport begins.
Twenty years after the introduction of the tank ring, SW-MOTECH is unveiling the V-LOC System at EICMA 2025a newly developed mounting system for saddlebags. The flat, V-shaped carrier made from forged steel employs integrated Fidlock magnets, guiding the bag into position with an audible click signaling secure attachment.
The idea: Attach and detach luggage easier than ever, without compromising safety. "After revolutionizing tank-mounted luggage solutions with our tank bags, we're now achieving a similar breakthrough for the rear of the bike," explains CEO Kai Jockel. The new carrier is exclusively compatible with V-LOC saddlebags, which are being introduced for the first time in Milan.
Two Lines, One System: Legend Gear & WP
