Leather saddle bags can be an impressive addition to your motorcycle apparel, but over time, the elements can wreak havoc on the leather. Learn a few easy steps to keep your leather saddle bags looking sharp, bright and long-lasting.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Clean your leather saddle bags frequently with a damp, soft cloth.

  2. Step 2

    Dry your saddlebags as soon as possible if they get wet.

  3. Step 3

    Store your saddle bags in a dry place, and stuff them with old T-shirts or cloth to keep them in shape when not in use.

  4. Step 4

    Use a leather dressing, such as Peckard's, to preserve the integrity of your leather. The more the leather is exposed to the elements, the more often you should apply the dressing.
