Kuryakyn

I used this one on a 5,000+ mile trip. I highly recommend it.


Kuryakyn GranTour Bag

It can face forwards or backwards on your sissy bar, and comes with everything (straps, etc.) you need - even a cable lock.

I used the Triumph tall sissy bar, but it may work on a short one also. It may also work with no sissy bar at all (due to the numerous tie-down points), but I didn't risk it.



Here you can see the Kuryakyn GranTour with its rain cover, with a couple of smaller bags attached. I rode over 5,000 miles with the bike loaded as you see it here.
