What stops you from opening the tour pac is the pressure of the bag against the backrest pad. \\; You will be able to open it \\;but closing it is a different story. \\; Of course this was the it was mounted to my bike. \\; It may be different for you. The bag on the entire trip was very stable, no shifting around.

There is a strap in the center of the bag, near the top, on the rear of the bag that is supposed to go around the luggage rack to keep the bag from leaning or falling forward. I found that every time I needed into the tour pack I had to unfasten that strap. Not a big deal really. I also have a T-Bag backseat bag. That has two of those little suckers and can really be a PIA. That taught me to put all the stuff I'll need on the road in the outside pockets of the T-Bag instead of in the tour pack.

I'm still thinking about it. I don't have a luggage rack, and I really don't want one. I really like getting in &\\; out of my tour pack, esp. since I can Lock it. The pressure of the bag in the back seat \\;against the tour pack lid does concern me, when closing, and I can't help but think those two little hinges don't much care for the added pressure either.
May just have to engineer some kind of strap under the tour pack and up to the top of the bag, thus giving forward and vertical restraint. E-bay seems to have a good deal on them. I wonder how comfortable they are as well. Looks like a little padding would be nice.

I began this post some time ago, and I thought I would give an update.
I bought the bag and LOVE IT!!!! Best damn investment I've made. I take one bag in and out of the hotels. Everything else remains locked up in the bike. I have one saddlebag for me, one for my wife. We put our rain suits & leather in those. The tour pack holds our helmets, gloves, and other assorted crap we don't need in our room at night. The bag comes with several straps and after a few dry runs I was able to come up with a rigging system that allows me to hook the bag on securely in about 15 seconds. Here's the trick! Under the tour pack route a strap between the rails that the Tour pack sits on. (left to right) Now, take the vertical/fwd restraint strap and secure it around the cross strap that you attached earlier. This strap connects into the back top of the bag securing it from leaning forward under braking and still allows you access to your tour pak. The side straps are connected to the rails under the tour pak as well. I have mine setup at all times. When not in use, I connect them together and hide them behind the rear seat flap. You can't see them unless your looking for them. My wife & I packed heavy for 4 days each and still had room. I added a piece of foam in a stuff bag for a cpl of bucks to add a bit of cushion. I'm very happy with my purchase.
