Looking at the Dekker Tbag for our trip what bag do you use on trips

 

are you talking about a bag for Ontop of the tour pac?? if so, be careful of not putting too much weight up there... I just got back from a 22 day 6000+ coast to coast with the wife... she has packing down to a science... only thing on top of the tour pac is our tennis shoes and pouches for the rain jackets.. The was the first trip we brought tennis shoes and I gotta tell ya, after a few days with the boots - the feet enjoyed the tennis shoes for around the motel... lol


Just googled the bag, nice looking bag.. my problem would be I know it would get overloaded for the rack, but that's me..

BTW - I just saw your post count... wow... I tip my hat to ya,,,

 

Thanks, was just looking to see what the majority uses I want to be sure I have enough room for the few things I might buy along the way.

 

I bought the Dekker and returned it after the first time I removed the huge foam stiffeners and tried to get them back in. If you leave them in it is a pretty small bag, if you remove them it is big enough but floppy. I returned it and bought a T-bag Dakota and am happy with it. It is large so be aware that it is easy to overload the Tour Pack rack.

 

I have the Dakota T Bag. It is great. Yes you can put a lot of stuff in it.

 

Check out the Nelson Rigg GWR-1000 - very similar to the Dekker, but a lot less expensive. You can buy it from a forum sponsor (Techncycle Gear) with the HF10 discount coupon for abot $125 delivered!

 

GWR-1000 is on back order I need to have it by the end of the month

 

I love the T-bag for on top of the tour rack. I have the dekker supreme. I am able to put the foam pieces back in after I take them out with no problem...bigger when I want it (foam out) big enough when I leave the foam in to keep the wife happy with extra storage space. I also like the fact that the side bags zip off and become fanny packs...while not the most fashionable they keep valuables on me instead of the bike...

 

I have the Decker Supreme. Holds as much as the tour pac, reasonably priced and is easy on, easy off. The rain cover it comes with leaves a lot to be desired.

 

Thanks all It looks like a toss up between the GWR-1000 and the Decker will let the wife make the final decision
