Default Help with Custom

Hello everyone
I built a custom over the winter and I love it,it is a lot of fun.
I ride a lot though and looking for options for saddle bags and other storage things.
I will give info on bike for all to add there input.
It is a homebuilt with a 80 cub engine,3 outer primary ( ultima)
Chain rear drive,200 rear wheel,80 spoke rims,15 inch ape's,ss super e carb.
Looking at ways I can travel with it.
Has anyone traveled great distances with open primary bike are they reliable?
