Luggage for a Fatbob
I just got a 2009 Fatbob and would like to get some bag to carry stuff. I do not want to get saddlebags and I do not have a sissy bar so it would need to mount to seat. Thinking of some kind of roll bag or something like Kuryakyn Mini GranTour Bag. I also been looking at the Bikers Friend medium bag but they are pricey. If anyone has pics of these on thier bike or experiences using them please comment on it. Don't really want anything too big but something along the line of 15" L 10" W 10" H. Thanks in advance.

I have the medium Biker's Friend bag. I love the thing. It's big enough & has plenty of pockets to hold extra pairs of glasses, gloves, and I can fit the helmet, a t-shirt and/or some groceries or whatever else I might want to carry in there. It's a little pricier than some other options, but it's very well made & looks great and it's a nice alternative to side bags. Good luck with your choice!

Thanks BBQ, I think I am leaning towards the Bikers Friend just need to save money. Do you think I could strap it under the back part of passenger seat using 2 straps on D-Rings? Also, you from KC? originally from there and go there about once a month for famil. Love the BBQ. I like Gates but Jackstack has the best beans. You do the competitions? Thanks for the info.

Check out the Biker's Friend site for info on how you might attach the bag. It can be done any number of ways and comes with all the straps & ties you'll need. http://www.bikersfriend.com/pages/harleygallery.htm
By the way, I'm not from KC, but I do judge and participate in KCBS sanctioned competitions. Jack Stack has some great Q & sides!
