Default Passenger Seat Bag

Looking at various bags that mount to the passenger seat on the Ultra and secure to the tourpak rack. Any suggestions as to which seem to work best and, which ones to stay away from ! Tia, MikeyTX

I have a Saddlemen "Back Seat Bag"

It holds about as much as a half a drum...

I absolutely love it.

This one... but I got it cheaper somewhere...

I put a towel under the bungees on the front, makes a great backrest.

Default Thank you Chip

Evidently, not that many use them. I do appreciate your response. Guess I'll have to check Jim's Cycle Shop in Axtell, TX They carry several different brands.

I looked at a few...

Saddlemen quality is second to none, in the pics, the big bag on the OL's is a Saddlemen also.

I had a Tbag and gave it away when I found this one.

I use the old Harley one from SAC. Still in good shape 12 years later. Got it used from eBay. Couldn't tell from new.

Doesn't need to be fancy. Mainly for dirty laundry ................... Left saddle bag is my ice chest. I drill a tiny weep hole in the left rear outside corner. Works like a champ for keeping bottled water cold. Been doing that for years on all my baggers.

Had to add the passenger grab rail to make it work on the 14. Hoping for a Southern tour this Fall to try it out. This was the 03.
Also, was able to still use my rider backrest, although looking at Safety Man's, no need for one.

Interesting. I was wondering about that. I may invest in the grab rail. Should make rolling the bike backwards out of the garage easier.
