I am going to get some soft throwover bags for my street bob. Check the dyna section I saw some ideas in there. Tell HC to chill and thanks for the pics.

This reminds me of when I went to the stealer yesterday to buy 3 quarts of oil and a filter. Hauled it home (~30 miles) on the tank between my legs, tied up in the bag.

Bedroll is one way I was thinking....Just takin a couple pairs of jeans, skivies, socks,a couple shirts....leathers???? depends on the weather, if it looks like some rain is involved.

if thats a quick detach sissy in your sig pic... cant ya drop that on just to do one of those backrest packs on there.. then just detach the sissy when ya take off the baggage at the destination? Just an idea.. maybe not a good one.....

although... HC prolly still has the sissy on hers... just pack some stuff on there!

I used to tie a bed roll to my bars above the light on my DWG, but your tach is in the way. I could stuff it full of clothes, rain suit and whatever and then zip tied it to my bars. Check out the bags in the black market on Bikernet.com

Just tried out the T-bags switchback this weekend. I'm happy with it. Plenty of room for my junk and the bag didn't move a bit once I set it up. Holds it's shape well due to the rigid plastic liner. Here's a couple of pics.
