Finally someone who got a thorough and detailed review on this product! Nicely done mate! I bought it because of your review 🍺 fits great and its a very well made backpack
Yeah a lot of things took place since this video that had me busy with other things, but long story short the bag did well for about a year, then it got a small tear in it right after the warranty expired...a tad disappointed in that. The tear isn't impacting the functionality at all and the bag still holds things securely but still a bummer that it happened. It looks like one of the seams just didn't hold. Other than that the bag has had no issues. Hope that helps, let me know if you have more questions.
I highly doubt it! I mean if you had no armor in it (no back, shoulder or elbow) you may be able to stuff it in there, but that kind of defeats the point of the jacket. I don't personally have the Tornado 3 but I do have the Offtrack 2 which is similar in bulkiness and it doesn't fit. Honestly it's a pretty slimline backpack, yes it does have the expansion ability but it still isn't big enough for a full size jacket IMO. Hope that helps.
Great review! One thing I've hated about the Ogio backpacks is that i can never set it down on the floor standing, due to its shape. Would this one be able to set down standing?
Thanks for watching and the comment! Honestly it depends on whats in it and where the center of gravity is. There have been times i have gotten it to stand on its own but not that consistently.
Thank you for the feedback and for watching. Are you talking about this video specifically or all of them (which ones did you watch). Or are you specifically talking about the backpack broll lighting?
What are your thoughts on the Alpinestars Charger Pro Backpack? Do you use a different moto bag?

I appreciate the feedback, thank you for watching and the comment. Happy to hear the review helped you make a decision.
Appreciate the info and details - really helps understand the product
Alpinestars does not disappoint, you are really paying for quality.
Please do you have any video or pictures with you wearing it and riding with it ?
Unfortunately I don't, never had that camera view, only POV while wearing it.
@FifthNorth is the backpack no longer available ? It's something that can be done in your future videos i reckon .
Good review. Thanks buddy 😊
Just got mine now. Gonna buy the additional armour for it, because I don't have $1500nzd to spend on a airbag pack.
...you never gave an update on this backpack like you said

2:00 - Amazon says 22 litre expandable by 4.5 litres.
I went off of what was on Alpinestars website at the time of filming.
@@FifthNorth No worries, just trying to help - excellent video btw, I purchased one of the back of this review!
@@--jay-- Appreciate it!
THanks for making this, there are few videos and fewer photos of all the features.
No problem, thank you for watching! I have more videos coming up reviewing additional Astars gear so stay tuned!
Great review! Does it fit a full helmet inside with the side zipper expanded? Thanks!
It didnt fit my Shoei, i needed to use the external helmet holder.
Is it possible to put a motorcycle jacket Revit Tornado 3 inside?
I highly doubt it! I mean if you had no armor in it (no back, shoulder or elbow) you may be able to stuff it in there, but that kind of defeats the point of the jacket.

Grazie 👍🏻🇮🇹
Doesn't seem like there's any pass through or area for a water bladder, but I wonder iff it could be rigged to use one where the spine protector goes?
I havent put too much thought in to it, but yeah I think you could make that work.
Can you fit a helmet inside the bag?
No, it's too small for that.
How’s it holding up?
Did you buy the spine protector insert?
It's doing great! No issues or complaints so far and yes, I did purchase the AStars back protector. Really happy with the bag. Thanks for watching!
@@FifthNorth I ordered the backpack & spine protector insert for my 17 year old son and his new to him 2014 Honda CBR500R 👍
@@SemiDad Awesome! I hope he enjoys it! Thanks for your support.
Hi! Can you please tell me exactly which is the back protector?
