I first bought a Dekker Supreme, it fit the rack nicely but with the foam sidewalls in it, it was too small. I removed the walls and then, unless it was full, it was pretty floppy. When I put the walls back in, it took way to long and was a real pain. I returned it and bought a Dakota and it looks like it will be just fine. The Dekker also lacks a carrying handle on top.

+1 on the Nelson Rigg GWR 1000. Nice bag for 1/2 the cost.

Yes it is a very nice bag. I dont think you would want anything bigger on the back.

Big bags should have wheels. The Kuyakyn grantraveller for $189 Seems like a nice bag. Anyone used it? It is a little smaller then the Dakota roller
