I pack each day's clothing in a plastic grocery bag. Tshhirt, underware, socks. Jeans I sometimes wear twice so they have their own bag each. The next day I use the now empty bag from clean clothes for dirty yesterday's clothes and tie it shut. if it has a knot I know its dirty. seems to work for me. I also "roll" my tshirts and jeans. seems to limit wrinkles and easy to pack.

Mine stay on the SG most of the time. I like them for keeping stuff from rattling around inside the saddle bags. They are easy to take in and out for use on trips. One of the most useful items I have purchased from HD and at a very reasonable price. The wife has learned if it don't fit it don't go. I went from a Dyna with no bags to a SG so I am happy to just have some storage. I will be purchasing a QR luggage rack for a barrel bag for longer trips.

May be the only product I returned to the parts counter for a refund.

If you don't carry a substantial tool kit or first aid kit in a saddlebag, the HD product makes sense. One might make sense for me--but no way two make sense.

The side bags for tools, rain gear and the like and the tour pack for cloathes and stuff, easy in and easy out. Ride safe.

Love them, like several others have commented though my right bag stays packed with 'essentials', leathers, raingear, cover etc. When it's just me, the tourpak is plenty for a 7 day trip and I love being able to just 'grab and go' when I get to where I'm going.

I use mine every time we go. Super easy to just grab and go when you stop at the hotel. Same when you load up to go.

I use mine regularly. Makes it easy when you reach your destination to just pull them out and go

I have the soft bags for saddlebags and tourpak, plus another that goes on the tourpak lid. It's the only way to travel!

I have saddlebag and tour pack liners from HD. I keep one saddlebag filled with necessary rain gear, 1/2 rain cover and tool kits. Other saddlebag and tour pack for clothes for grab and go when at destination. can always squeeze a few more items on top once inserted. Innovativesolutions.com offers same style bags but with side zippers so items are accessible like those in a suit case. They also have tool bags that fit in the dead space on bottom of hard bag.
