I use one that was made for a four-wheeler front rack. Tough as nails, built in rainfly, on and off easy. What more could you ask for?

Wow!

 T-bags web site is gone! I can't find any factory site? I wonder if they went under. I own a couple t-bags and they are high quality and very functional. You would be amazed at how mush stuff I put in the small back pak I bought. So did the bad economy kill T-bag?   FACE

I decided to go with the T-bag Dakota. I shopped around and found this great price of $206.99 and free shipping! They have one left if anyone is interested. Next closest price is $125.   FACE

This is what I use, and really like it.  It is a T bags space saver, comes with rain cover.  Velcro's on. 90 dollars

When I start on a trip it's empty, takes little space.  Then after a week at sturgis and another at yellowstone and such, it is pretty much full of souvenirs, tee shirts and such.


x 2- that's what I'm looking at getting once I get my TP rack. I like the fact it's super light, and collapsible so that you can fit it easily in a saddlebag when your not using it.

I actually thought I was going to go with the T Bags Accordian (same as the Space Saver, but smaller), which fits the HD contoured TP rack, but I ordered one, and it is much smaller than I thought.

So, I realized if I want a bigger bag, I'll need to get the HD Airwing rack instead. I'm only going to use it for long trips, so I figure I can unscrew and remove the rack when not in use.

Sorry, a bit of thread jack.

How about for the rack that came on Camel Hump of 06/07?  My good old expandable HD rack bag won't fit properly on that rack. What are the 06/07 Ultra owners using?

Mark...on my '06, I found the Road Ready Medium rack bag to be a nice fit for the smaller rack, and it's a totally waterproof bag without the need for a raincover.

I see they've expanded their line a bit, but I'm 99% sure it was the RBM model, and it fit perfectly.  http://www.roadreadybags.com/touringrackbags.html


It'll hold as much stuff as you need to be putting up there...I used to fill it with things I wanted immediate access to (mostly the BSR's stuff), and then strap an OR (Outdoor Research) stuff sack on top with our rainsuits. The outside pockets are handy on it as well.

I ride a 07 and have found that the Kuryakyn roll bag model 4142 works great. It is large enough to put my leathers in but normally it is used by my wife for her travel gear saving the main tour pack for the heavier items we carry.  It actually fits on the rack and is easily attached with the Velcro strips provided. It also comes with a rain cover and a cable lock.

That's a good choice as well...I've used both on the '06 I used to have.  Both have advantages and disadvantage, but neither's disadvantages make much difference.  The upside to the Road Ready is that it is truly waterproof without a cover.  The downside is that it is not a hard shelled bag, but rather has stiff foam sides, bottom, and top to help keep it's shape when not full.  Either one is a good choice... :2vrolijk_21:

I've had the Deker Supreme, Kuryakn Gran Tourer and several others mentioned.  They all have nice features.....one even had a handle and wheels.

But riding long distances I quickly learned a couple of things......I pack so much of the creature comforts that I need the lightest bag possible.  I also sometimes buy odd shaped things and the luggage that has a shape or form type frame just makes anything other than clothes hard to pack. 

I just keep going back to the first tour pack bag model that I first bought maybe fifteen years ago.  This is my second one of that model.  It is water resistant (I think one corner my clothes got damp in a really driving rain that I got stuck in for hours) and the great thing is that the bottom has a zipper that goes all the way around and it actually expands another 3" taller than what you see in this pic.

An added safety feature......it has a large reflective strip that goes all the way across the back so you can't be missed at night.  It has four very large (wide) velcro straps plus an adjustable strap that I loop through the tour pack rack before fastening, just as an added safety feature. :2vrolijk_21:
Looking for this same tour pack top bag again.  It was Harley Davidson Part # 91753-92.  I would definately consider a used one, provided it's not damaged.

Here's another view......  http://www.surdyke.com/AdvPartInfo.asp?PartNumber=91753-92

This is the one I use, fits the luggage rack like a glove.  Believe they were made for Gold wings originally. Picked it up new years ago from a guy for $40.00, liked it because it fit so well.
