RE: Strange Sighting On a Hard Bag
Don't worry about the smarta$$ replies, rguilbert, lots of "experts" here that like to call people posers and yuppies. Just keep reading and posting for all the good info you can get here. Screw those that don't like what you say. Who the he11 cares who's a poser or yuppie?

What is that round thing sticking up from the top of the hard saddlebag? I have seen about 10 of these now...Is it ventilation? Is it an antenna? It looks about 2-3 inches in diameter and seems to be raised up about 1 inch off the center of the bag. Just curious. Is it a really cool thing that I need?

But back to the subject at hand. I have the ability to open my bags while riding as well, and consider myself a pretty good rider, but I am not sure that I want to be cruisin' down the highway at 70 while turning around to open my bags to reach down in the bottom to find a different pair of glasses. Just doesn't seem like a wise idea to me. May be a better idea to pull over for a second to get what ever it is that you need.
I read posts on here all the time about people driving cars while eating and talking on a cell phone and how mad people get about that. What do you think you look like turned around backwards digging in your saddle bag.
Just my .02 cents.
