RE: Storage: Bag question

Understand the desire not to relocate signals, but a number of small slanted (12x9x5) throw over saddlebags work fine w/o relocation problems like Willie & Max, Tourmaster, etc and can be tied down/removed pretty easily for the occasional times you need them. Combined with a small backpack you should be fine.

Kuryakyn advertises that their Grandtour bag will mount on the rear reat without a sissybar. http://www.kuryakyn.com/products.asp...ey&ci=3075 I have a Kuryakyn and they make a great bag. And this place has the best prices on bags.http://www.motorcycle-luggage.com/

RE: Storage: Bag question

If you ride your bike, it's not going to stay factory mint-pretty. Function over style.

I slapped a big cheap set of throwover bags under my rear seat and tied them off to my shock mounts. I have a small toolbag behind the winshield and I use a 15"x15" cargo net to strap a backpack to my passenger pillion.

My bags rub the paint, and the shock chrome andpart of my rear turn signals. Eventually that chrome will wear off, but I'll still be able to carry my stuff.

Just not the cleanest lines ona DWG.

Here's a shot on the road without the backpack strapped on.

Check for cheap storage solutions @ ww.jafrum.com It's Pakastani leather but the price is right.

Break down and buy the pop off stuff from Harley. Comfy seat, sissy bar and luggage rack. All very handy and pops off in about 30 seconds. You can hook that sucker nicely forunder a grand. I mean if you spend all that cash on a bike why skimp on the extras.

My 2 cents. Good luck
