A baggage container for a motorcycle is described. The baggage container includes an internal wall, which faces toward the motorcycle when the baggage container is attached to the motorcycle, an external wall at a distance from the internal wall, a front wall, which faces toward a forward area of the motorcycle when the baggage container is attached to the motorcycle, a rear wall, which faces toward a rear area of the motorcycle when the baggage container is attached to the motorcycle, and two side walls, which each extend between the internal wall and the external wall. An air guiding element which guides travel wind flowing along the external wall in a predefined direction, is situated in a transition area between the external wall and the rear wall.

Baggage container for a motorcycle

A motorcycle covering has a device for influencing a water flow which guides rain water taken along by an air flow on an outer surface of a motorcycle covering. This device assures that the rain water, after its detachment from the motorcycle covering, does not hit a driver and/or passenger. At least a partial surface of the motorcycle covering is provided with at least one rib which projects toward the outside and which, viewed in the direction of a longitudinal axis of a motorcycle, guides water from the front toward the rear and, viewed in the direction of a transverse axis of the motorcycle, guides water from the inside to the outside such that, after detachment of the water from the motorcycle covering, the water moves at least past partial regions of the driver and/or of the passenger.
