The left side bag is still small ?

[ThreeWheels]

Am I right ?
In my 2010, the left side bag was smaller than the right side because the battery was in the way.
My 2014, the battery was moved up front, but the left side bag is still smaller ?
HUH ?
Is there something else in the way that takes up the space in the old battery location ?
Or did BRP just not change the molds for the bags ?
I'd like the extra space. I can't fit a helmet in the left bag, but that's the easiest for me to access when the Spyder is parked in my garage.

I noticed the same thing when I got mine home, never thought much about it. Figured there must be something behind it in there. My Neotec has to go in the frunk, too wide for the right bag.

I have a 2014 RT and I find that I can fit my wife's 3/4 helmet inside the right side compartment but not on left side. :dontknow:

The left side is smaller. I also wonder why??

Same with my 2013 RT . . . I suspect it was left that way so they could continue to use the same parts . . . cheaper than making new molds, and also easier on the supply side for replacement parts . . .

I think that you're right... They just didn't bother to expand the bag, once they had the chance to do so.
Although they DID move the evaporative canister back into that location for the 2014 models...

The left side is also smaller not just because of the battery but because if you add the XM radio, it goes between the left saddlebag and the frame.
