Is there a tourpack that is made for single seat bikes? That do not have the passenger backrest?
Although, I am thinking maybe just go with side bags for now. Hopefully that will be enough for day to day riding and I can throw a bag on the back for the occaisional road trip.

I can bolt a OEM TourPack on the back of my FLHS, but I would need to remove the accessory luggage rack first. I went cheap and Hack Fab'd up a plywood mount that allows me to put an 8 gallon Rubbermaid Action Packer on the rack using a couple of bungee cords. Been working fine for over 24 years. Get to my destination, or motel stop, and off the bike and into the room it goes. The down side is that it's really not weather-proof (like the TourPack or hard saddlebags). I pack everything inside a large plastic trash bag before it goes inside. Many 8 hour days chasing and being chased by the remnants of hurricanes have proven that this works fine. And I have dry clothes to change into.
The saddlebags do just fine for my daily commuting. I can get my leather jacket, gloves, and small helmet in the high-side bag. The other bag doesn't see much use, unless I'm going to be traveling long distances. Then I want all my rain gear in the high-side bag. Everything else in the low-side. My insulated cooler/lunchbox is strapped to the luggage rack with a couple of bungee cords.

I mounted a three-channel luggage rack on mine, along with the Mustang wide solo seat. The rack is great. I can strap a duffel to it for touring, and I can use a bungee net to tie something to the rack if I'm out and need to carry something that won't fit in the saddlebags (like a case of Mountain Dew and a pizza, or, whatever).

Although I have my Ape hangers racked back a bit and it creates a very comfortable riding position.

Comfort trumps looks all the time IMO.
