Full Description

The Nano Cockpit is the premier motorcycle dog carrier for sharing the thrill of the ride with your small dog (< 20lb/9kg).

 

Like a good riding helmet…

The Nano Cockpit’s tubular, steel frame creates a rigid barrier against external impacts while soft padding protects your dog from all hard parts.

 

To mount easily, anywhere…

The Nano has discrete anchor bars welded along the bottom so you can attach whatever straps you prefer and secure it to your motorcycle however you see fit. The bottom cushion protects your seat vinyl or fairing paint from the metal baseplates.

 

For a stress-free ride…

The dog rides in the comfortable laying-down position. This prevents them from being thrown around the carrier so you can enjoy the immense thrill of speed and hard leaning.

 

Under extreme weather conditions…

The Nano’s open-air design delivers maximum cooling ventilation for warm weather and extreme heat. For winter conditions, our K9 Moto Rainfly add-on protects your dog against cold, wind, rain, and torrential downpours.

 

When traveling far from home…

At 15in x 8in / 38cm x 20cm, the Nano Cockpit occupies a small footprint on your motorcycle. The rigid frame means you can securely attach dry bags and camping gear to the outside.

 

About making your dog comfortable – everywhere…

Remove the seat cushion to use as a travel bed or easily unclip the whole unit and bring it into the tent so your dog feels safe and protected for sleeping soundly on the road.

 

Whenever you ride together…

We recommend outfitting your dog in the K9 Moto Harness to safely and comfortably restrain them within the protection of the Nano Cockpit’s padded enclosure.

Share the Thrill of the Ride with Your Dog in a Cockpit, not a Suitcase

Most small dog carriers are designed to look and function like an airline suitcase. A suitcase is fine for carrying your toiletries and a change of clothes, but your precious dog?

The Nano Cockpit is a rigid motorcycle dog carrier with soft padding to protect your dog from exterior hazards and keep them safe and secure under the dynamic forces of motorcycle riding.

It is low-profile, has a universal mounting system, and is custom outfitted to match your tastes and motorcycle. For more info, check out the Gear Guide video above or this article.
