Why Moto Pockets Only Uses YKK® Zippers on Our Motorcycle Handlebar Bags

When it comes to motorcycle gear, every detail matters. From the fabric to the stitching, each component must perform flawlessly—because when you’re on the road, there’s no room for failure. That’s why at Moto Pockets, we don’t compromise on the parts that keep your gear safe and accessible.

One of those small but mighty components? The zipper.

The Unsung Hero of a Great Motorcycle Handlebar Bag

A zipper may seem like a small detail, but any rider who’s had one fail mid-ride knows how big a problem it can become. Dust, dirt, and vibration take a toll on your motorcycle handlebar bag, and a cheap zipper can quickly jam, split, or break. That’s why we use authentic YKK® zippers on every Moto Pockets motorcycle handlebar bag—because reliability isn’t optional.

Built to Handle Real-World Riding

YKK® is known worldwide for producing the most durable, smooth-operating zippers available. Their zippers are engineered to withstand:

• Extreme weather conditions – From blazing desert heat to mountain rainstorms, YKK® zippers maintain their integrity and performance.
• Constant motion and vibration – Perfect for adventure motorcycles where gear takes a beating.
• Dirt and dust – YKK’s precision manufacturing helps prevent grit from jamming the zipper teeth.

When you’re relying on your handlebar bag for quick access to essentials—like your phone, keys, or wallet—you want that zipper to glide open every time, not fight you on the side of the road.

Trusted by Riders and Chosen by Moto Pockets

You’ll find YKK® zippers in the best outdoor, tactical, and military-grade gear for a reason. They’re the gold standard for reliability. At Moto Pockets, our goal has always been to build USA-made motorcycle handlebar bags that last for years, not just seasons. Pairing YKK® zippers with rugged Cordura® fabric ensures our bags perform as hard as you ride.

Because Quality Isn’t Optional

There are plenty of cheaper zippers out there—but cutting corners isn’t our style. Riders trust Moto Pockets motorcycle handlebar bags because we obsess over the details that make a difference. That’s why every time you zip open your Moto Pockets handlebar bag, you’ll feel that smooth, solid YKK® action—and know your gear is built right.

Ride farther. Ride organized. Ride with Moto Pockets.
