Manufacturing Bill of Material

The Kuryakyn Saddlebag Cooler (part number 5202) is a specialized accessory designed to provide convenient and insulated storage, primarily for beverages and other items that benefit from temperature control, within a motorcycle's saddlebag. This product is engineered to enhance the riding experience by allowing users to carry refreshments or other temperature-sensitive goods on their journeys.

Function Description:

The primary function of the Kuryakyn Saddlebag Cooler is to offer an insulated storage solution that fits within a standard motorcycle saddlebag. It is designed to keep contents cool, making it ideal for carrying drinks, snacks, or even small perishable items during rides. The cooler's construction focuses on insulation to maintain internal temperatures, while its form factor is optimized to integrate seamlessly into the limited space of a saddlebag. The inclusion of a removable shoulder strap enhances its portability, allowing the cooler to be easily carried off the motorcycle. A bottle/can opener is integrated, providing a practical utility feature for immediate use with beverages. The product is packaged with clear instructions and necessary labeling to ensure proper use and identification.

Important Technical Specifications:

The Kuryakyn Saddlebag Cooler, identified by its routing ID 5202, is a single unit (Quantity Required: 1 EA). The Bill of Material (BOM) provides a detailed breakdown of its components:

605202 - ASSY, S/B COOLER (1 EA): This is the main assembly of the saddlebag cooler itself, indicating a complete, pre-assembled unit.
615202 - BOTTLE/CAN OPENER (1 EA): An integrated or attachable bottle/can opener, adding to the cooler's utility.
405005 - STRAP, REMOVABLE SHOULDER STRAP (1 EA): A shoulder strap designed for easy attachment and detachment, facilitating portability.
4005000 - SOFT GOODS PO LABEL (1 EA): A label related to soft goods purchase orders, likely for internal tracking.
4005010 - SOFT GOODS WARNING AND COO LABEL (1 EA): A warning label and Country of Origin (COO) label, essential for regulatory compliance and user safety.
305202 - INSTRUCTIONS FOR 5202 (1 EA): A set of instructions specific to the 5202 model, guiding users on its proper use and maintenance.
4605202 - HANG TAG FOR 5202 3.25 IN X4.25 IN (1 EA): A product hang tag, measuring 3.25 inches by 4.25 inches, typically used for branding, product information, and retail display.
4002010 - LABEL: NAME & BARCODE 4 X 1 WHITE (1 EA): A white label, 4 inches by 1 inch, containing the product name and barcode for inventory management and retail scanning.
4002100 - EXTENDED FITMENT LABEL (1 EA): A label providing information on additional or extended fitment details, ensuring compatibility with various saddlebag types or motorcycle models.

The packaging process for the Saddlebag Cooler is meticulously outlined to ensure product integrity and customer satisfaction. Step 1 involves placing additional items into a poly bag with one silica packet, then placing this bag into the cooler. This suggests that there might be smaller accessories or components included with the main cooler unit, and the silica packet is used to absorb moisture, preventing mildew or damage during storage and transit. Step 2 details attaching the hang tag (part number 4605202) to the D-Ring, which is also equipped with the bottle opener. This step also specifies placing one silica packet inside the Saddlebag Cooler itself, and then placing the entire product into a poly bag with two additional silica packets. This multi-layered approach to moisture control underscores the importance of protecting the cooler's materials, especially its soft goods components, from humidity. Finally, Step 3 involves placing the poly bag-wrapped product into a kraft box, which is then closed and secured. This final packaging step ensures the product is protected during shipping and handling, arriving in pristine condition to the customer. The use of a kraft box suggests a durable and environmentally conscious packaging choice.

Usage Features:

The Kuryakyn Saddlebag Cooler is designed for ease of use and practicality for motorcycle riders.

Integrated Bottle/Can Opener: A key convenience feature, eliminating the need to carry a separate opener. This is typically attached to a D-ring on the cooler, making it readily accessible.
Removable Shoulder Strap: Enhances portability, allowing the cooler to be easily detached from the motorcycle and carried by hand or over the shoulder, making it convenient for picnics, events, or when dismounting the bike.
Optimized for Saddlebag Fitment: The cooler's dimensions and design are specifically tailored to fit within motorcycle saddlebags, maximizing storage efficiency without compromising the saddlebag's closure or the motorcycle's aesthetics. The "Extended Fitment Label" suggests that Kuryakyn provides guidance on compatibility with various saddlebag models.
Insulated Design: The core feature for keeping beverages and food items cool, crucial for longer rides or hot weather conditions. While specific insulation materials are not detailed, the product's function implies effective thermal barriers.
D-Ring Attachment Point: The D-ring serves as a versatile attachment point, not only for the bottle opener but potentially for other accessories or for securing the cooler within the saddlebag.
Clear Instructions: The inclusion of "Instructions for 5202" ensures that users can correctly understand how to use, install, and maintain their cooler, promoting a positive user experience.

Maintenance Features:

While specific maintenance instructions are not detailed in the provided documents, the nature of the product and its packaging process offer insights into expected maintenance:

Moisture Control: The extensive use of silica packets during packaging (one in the poly bag with additional items, one inside the cooler, and two in the outer poly bag) highlights the importance of keeping the cooler dry to prevent mold, mildew, or material degradation. Users should likely ensure the cooler is thoroughly dried after use, especially if it has contained ice or condensation.
Durable Materials: As a product designed for motorcycle use, it is expected to be constructed from durable materials that can withstand vibrations, varying weather conditions, and regular handling. This implies that the cooler should be relatively easy to clean and resistant to wear and tear.
Cleaning: For soft goods like a cooler, typical maintenance would involve wiping down the interior and exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allowing it to air dry completely. The "Soft Goods Warning and COO Label" might contain specific cleaning instructions or warnings related to the materials used.
Strap Care: The removable shoulder strap would likely benefit from occasional cleaning and inspection for wear, ensuring its longevity and secure attachment.
Storage: Proper storage in a dry environment, possibly with a silica packet if stored for extended periods, would help maintain the cooler's condition and insulation properties.

In summary, the Kuryakyn Saddlebag Cooler (5202) is a thoughtfully designed and packaged accessory that addresses the practical needs of motorcycle riders for portable, insulated storage. Its combination of functional features, robust packaging, and clear instructions aims to deliver a convenient and reliable solution for carrying refreshments and other items on the road.
