Default Transporting items on your Ultra Classic

I usually don't carry too much that won't fit in my tour pack or side bags, but I need to transport 20 18" x 24" coroplast signs - Like your standard political signs and was wondering what would be the best way to secure them and where???

Thanks In Advance...

Yeah that, except I would put them in a plastic trash bag, so they don't slide out.

Default Great idea

http://www.nomarrstrap.com/

After 1 good scratch in the top of my saddle bag from a bungee with a hook while transporting a gun barrel, I used these and now use them for everything!!! We have Menards stores in the Midwest, not sure where else you can buy them? I straped a new front tire to my luggage rack with them and went to the dealer to have them switch it out for me and lots of people at the dealer were checking them out too. Pretty neat, simple idea and made buy a guy here in WI! MADE IN THE U.S.A.!!!!
Yes he is a local guy, and a friend we ride with now and then for those that will ask.

I'm waiting for his response too so I can tell him what to do with the signs.
