Default is using a t bag possible without sissybar?

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to get my packing ideas down for Sturgis. Yesterday I bought a Road Glide Special. I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to mount a t bag on the rear seat without a sissybar or rear rack?

Get a rack, and do it like this...... keeps the Center of Gravity low. Once you get there, pull the rack off.

East of Mission South Dakota on SD 44. Went by the place in 2010, and was laughing so much, I forgot to snap a picture. Went by there again in 2012, and even had it set as a waypoint in my so I could get a picture GPS
