The expandable saddlebag also has a connecting device that allows for selectively opening and closing access to an interior cavity. The expandable saddlebag also includes a top cover selectively attachable to the expandable saddlebag in both the contracted and the expanded position. The expandable saddlebag also includes a saddlebag frame detachably secured to the frame of a motorcycle, and a handle to facilitate carrying the expandable saddlebag when it is detached from the motorcycle frame.
