tour trunk bag

I have one and bought it because everyone claimed it fit the rack perfectly. I guess perfect to me means something different because I brought mine to the dealer and tried every rack they had and ALL of the racks were too small. Still in search and have spent hours searching for the right dimensions online. If you take a close look at the pictures you’ll see that on the front of the rack there is the side that angles upwards... people set the bag on that so there’s a big gap between the rack in the bottom of the bag in the front. The bag itself is awesome but could benefit from a better designed top strap and side pockets.

I'm assuming that you will have a passenger and that you don't want to put a bag on the passenger seat. If I didn't have a passenger I would put bag on that seat before I would put it on tour Pack.
I have not had this specific bag but had similar one from T Bags. I don't like compartmentalized bags. I think it limits how much stuff you can put in it. I have several bags sitting around but I now use the Firstgear Torrent Duffle Bag all the time. Two reasons: 1) its waterproof and I don't have to worry about stopping the bike and putting the rain cover on it. 2) I can get more stuff in it than I can in a compartmentalized bag. Actually, a third reason, it costs a lot less.

talked about often... i have the saddlemen 3300 delux rack bag that fits very good on my airwing... about an inch or so deeper than perfect but tethered straps hook up nice and easy and i have been on several long trips with it no problems... i tried about 4 bags before i settled on this one..

The HD bag doesn’t appear to have a top carry handle and not sure about the straps that hold it to the rack, the picture just shows the ones on the front. The NR has a top carry handle , well actually on the back and is a little bigger than the HD bag.
damnit, this was supposed to go with a different thread...sorry, not sure how to delete it here.

I bought a Oxford Drystash T15 bag and it works great, the d - rings are plastic but I never use them anyway,I just bungie cord it to the rack. https://www.denniskirk.com/oxford/black-drystash-22-liter-waterproof-travel-bag-ol311.p5002931.prd/5002931.sku
