I have a cool suitcase. Might be tricky to ride a motorbike. Looking for a strap allowing to carrying it as a backpack?
Searching for suitcase or straps does not get me the product I want. I have a cool suitcase that I want to bring with me. It might be tricky to put it on a moped / motorbike. That's why I would like to carry it as a backpack, on my back.
Surely such product exists, my Google-foo skills are not good enough as there are other products competing in the space.

"cool suitcase"
Not only riding a motorbike but general hiking across short distances.

I know this is not a direct answer to your question, but I'll post it nevertheless: Don't do that
That suitcase is way too big to safely strap to your body while riding anything, let alone a motorcycle.
Even if empty, is bulk will keep you pinned and won't allow any movement; and it is big enough to catch a lot of wind and constantly pull you back at anything over a few Km/h.
And when (not if) you finally fall off the bike, it will either land on top of you (preventing you from running to safety), or just break your spine if you land on top of it hard enough.

Although this may boil down to personal preference, you may be looking for a 'Monkey Strap suitcase to backpack converter' or a 'backpack conversion strap'.
It is kind of a combination of straps that wrap around, let's say a carry-on, and enable you to carry it on your shoulders like a backpack. There are a variety of places where you can get something like this and depending on your location alternate names as well.
It looks like and fits on to a bag as shown below:
Feel free to google search the two terms and shop online or at any local store near you.
If you really want to drive a motorcycle then another good way may be to use a rear end motorcycle rack/carrier. You can mount and brace/tie your bag onto it and not worry about having it on your shoulders during the drive. They come in many varieties and can be found at any motorcycle spares shop.
