Mounting bag to Rigid Solo Rack

Just ordered a rigid solo rack for my 16' Street Bob. I like to drive to work but I pack a lunch (cheap bastard) and need somewhere to tie it down. I have been putting it in a backpack and it sucks...

Anyways, are you guys using a HD bag of some sort to attach or just "bungee" cording whatever you want down to it.

Thanks for reading

This is the one I use. I don't think they make it any more. It has straps that go around the turns and then I use small bungee cords to the shock bolts.

I have this rack and have just used bungee cords. Not the most pleasant to look at but they are effective.

I just went through a backpack replacement and did a lot of research. I did check out the HD bags and they are very nice. But, like most HD products, they are a little over priced.

I finally settled on this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This bag has tons of room and the plethora of straps allows you to use them to strap it to the rack itself. (Not to mention the **** ton of molle mounts)

I run the Motherwell solo rack, so it doesn't exactly attach to the bike the same way as yours. But the rack itself is very close. I will try to get some pics and post them up tomorrow when I get home from work.
