Default Tour pack question

I'm looking for info on storage for my tour pack, just wondering what I should buy.
I'm looking at the tour pack lid storage and the wall storage, which one would you get?

Thanks

I had the lid storage and got rid of it...stuff would fall out when the lid was down and it never did attach very well.. Then I got the one that wraps around the interior of the Tour pak and couldn't be happier...

I prefer the wall organizer. Reason I never pack anything in the tour pak that would smash up against anything in the pouches.


The lid organizer if I go a little to high its a lot easier to smash anything in the pouches.

I use the lid organizer...I have a luggage rack and the rack mounting bolts are pretty much required to hold the organizer in place. the sticky tape won;t hold in heat

i have apiece of luggage that pretty much fills the lower part of the tourpak

The wall organizer for sure, I have used one for the last year and it works great.

I currently have my TP stored up on a shelf and somewhat limited access. I have the wall organizer and probably wont install till spring. I'm a bit confused, how does that peel and stick Velcro attach to the tour pack liner ? That liner does not look condusive to holding peel and stick.

I use the Saddleman tour pak lid organizer. Works great. As others said the Velcro doesn't work well, but this one give you the option of using snaps that attack to the luggage rack bolts.

jdw1, I have the wall organizer and think it's pretty handy for the little stuff that we carry on trips. That stuff that we want to be able to get ahold of without opening the larger bag that is usually in there. Besides, my better half requested a mirror on the inside of the top of the T/P.

You don't stick the Velcro to the T/P liner. Is sticks to the inside of the T/P walls and drapes over the liner. I tried to take a picture, but the liner and organizer are both black. It was hard to distinguish between the two.

Thanks, that makes sense.
