Default What size roll bag??
Just put the solo rack on my 1200N. Need a bag to carry a leather jacket, small lunch and maybe a laptop. Any suggestions on what size would handle this?

mississippiboy,

Hey, was you able to mount your licks solo bag with the rear foot peg or did you take the foot peg off?

you mount it with it on. You can ride to up still but alittle hairy. you can always extend it. but on short trips wifey can still reach it fine. I like the bag so far but havent had it on too long. so far ive used it for phone wallet all that stuff and it works fine. If you decide you want one call licks he runs promotional codes all the time on XL forums and he will give you the code it takes 50 bucks off of the price

Does the bag need some type of sissy bar or back support to be attached or will it attach to a seat handhold strap?

Thanks

Thanks,

The only velcro straps I could see in their pix looked like it was vertical for use with a sisy bar. I guess there are some on the bottom of the bag for seat straps?
