Please don't spook the road-sheep.
it holds a pretty good amount in addition to the saddlebags:

What I like is that it will mount on the stock F6B Deluxe rear rack, as well as the passenger seat. On the rack, the secret is to secure the forward straps to the passenger handrail. That holds it forward enough to keep it on the rack without laying on the bike's finish. When mounted on the stock seat, it compliments the step nicely to form a rider backrest.
Since I only have to pack for one for extended trips, this and the saddlebags should be more than enough space for me. I've learned to pack pretty lightly. Occupational hazard, I suppose.
I was pretty impressed with how much I was able to fit into this bike's saddlebags.
I fit a full face helmet, 2 pair of chaps, 2 leather Jackets (no armor), full rain gear (FroggTogg jacket, pants, boots), one pair of women's boots, extra gloves and cargo net, and some tissues and napkins. I probably could have fit more by using filling the inside of the helmet.
I decided to go with DowCo Iron Rider series luggage. We'll see how it works. It cost about $87 (http://www.speedaddictcycles.com/pro...-Main-Bag.html ) for this main bag. It has a firm base so it doesn't sag onto the tupperware.
Securing it to the bike takes some pondering since the back rest is so short the wide velcro straps are a little difficult to slide between the backrest and the seat. There are multiple straps provided to anchor the bag to the luggage rack and any other secure point on the bike. The points I chose were the backrest, the luggage rack and the rear speaker brackets.
It's about 3/4 full but I've waaaay overpacked for a weekend.
When I get back I'll report on how the luggage worked out. I bought the "Main Bag" and other shapes and sizes can be added and attached onto the top.

It's 7" X 13" X 14"
It expands a bit in the 7" direction when you pack it full. When I'm riding locally, I stand it on its side and put it in the left saddlebag. My iPhone/iPod zips plugs into the USB port and zips nicely into the side pocket. Seems to give it pretty good protection.
Thanks for the info.I see in the picture it has a pad underneath it and I was wondering if it has tie downs that come with it.I want a bag to tie down to the seat as my standard does not have a rack or backrest and I don't want to put them on my bike.Size wise it looks perfect for my needs.
Ok, just got back from a weekend in Vt. I had plenty of room with the Iron rider "Main Bag". I will probably order another bag to attach to the top of this one for my 1 week Maine vacation in August. This bad was rock solid on the trip. It is fairly large and stayed securely attached during the trip.

The bike rode real well and with the luggage on the back and a passenger, I could tell there was some added weight on the back. The front end seemed to feel lighter. I'll probably try adjusting the rear spring a little before the Maine trip.
