I have a streetglide, just wondering what you guys you as far as travel bags, how you strap to back. Looking to do 2-3 day trip. I ride solo on stock seat, I do have removeable sissy bar to bungee bags to. They say the saddlebags are only rated for 15lbs. So if any one has pics let me see them please

Please, two days? You've got two saddlebags, are you planning on a formal dance each night? LoL Seriously, get the detachable docking points, a detachable backrest, and a luggage rack. Then get some good T-Bags, SAC, HD, Dakota, Nelson, the list is endless. Or better yet, just get a tour pak, and everything is always covered, and waterproof. Good Luck, and let us know which way you go.

Get a Tbag or something similar that goes over your backrest. A bigger bag is better if you really like to ride on road trips.
