Anyone else have a, "have bungee (and/or ratchet strap), will travel," attitude about their bikes?

That was my 09 Road King, spent 9 months on the Road living the dream. I put all my household items in storage and hit the road before finding a place to settle down again. Traded that bike in after 3 1/2 years with 62k miles on the odometer.

I know I don't. I got one bungee cord in my saddle bag and I've never used it.

Absolutely!! Saddlebags on softail custom and load rear fender with sleeping bag, tent, camp supplies, folding chair, sleeping pads, etc.. Doing it again this weekend. . I actually like the challenge of loading up the bike. Another little trick is that you can actually bungee stuff on top of your saddlebags LOL. But your passenger needs to have fairly long legs to make that work. So I screen em accordingly. .
