Default Street Glide Luggage Bag vs Tour Pak Poll

I can't get enough of these forums. I've spent the last hour plus reading up on T-Bags, Kuryakyn and the HD Tour Packs. I have an 06 Black Pearl (paint makes it faster...)Street Glide that I plan on taking on a 1200+ mile trip in October with my gal. She knows how to pack but I usually take enough to last me incase I don't want to come back...I'm also going to start riding the bike back and forth from Indy to Columbus, OH (about 3 hours each way) a couple times a month instead of driving my beater. Really looking at something I could fill up with work junk,throw on the passanger seat and go with...

Anyways, I'm looking for suggestions and hopefully Street Glide pics with "luggage" if you have them. I currently don't have a luggage rack but would want one I could take off in a hurry after adding it if I need to go that route.

Thanks for any suggestions!

First vote, King pack. The King is the only way to fly. Granted the chopped would look better on the Street Glide but after having a King, don't think I could ever do without one.

King TourPak is a nice way to go... But Very $$$$ (even used - has anyone priced HD Matching Paint @ $260.00 per pint??) + the hardware for the install!!!

But for just Throw & Go - I would have to say "T-Bag" !!!

I have the Kuryakyn. It has multiple access points and wheels. It has proven to be a good bag but the rain cover does not fit worth a damn.

If I could get out on the rod a little easier the tour pack would be my first pick. I'm leaning toward one of the bags though. Post pics of yours if you have em on a Street Glide!

Thanks!

This may be what you're looking for if you go with a T bag:

I tried to hit the link but I'm getting a no service error. I can get to the site direct, is there a particular bag you have experience with?

I've got a rally pak. It will hold a lot of stuff, but it is a pain to strap on, so I'm looking for something else. I'll probably look at t-bags or nelson rigg.

You can see a picture of it on the bike in my profile. I didn't even have a luggage rack in that picture. It does work a little better now with a rack.
