    Travel Luggage Help

    Need some long-distance luggage. After much on-line exploration, bought the Saddleman SDP2600 Roller Bag. Loved the bag but returned it as it would not fit that wide F6B passenger backrest and with those wheels on the bottom, just would not snug down. Have tried two roller bags now and same problem with both, so I guess I forget that idea. Anyone had good luck with rear seat or rear rack luggage you could put me on to?? Thanks for any input!

    MP3 rack and Kury Gran Traveler bag (with wheels).
    It is slightly offset to the left of the bike to avoid the antenna.

    On the rear seat is a T-Bag that actually works quite well with the low backrest.

    I've been looking at the new kury xkursion 5.0 roller bag. It looks just right for my showchrome rack. It has wheels and a rain cover. Kind of pricey but if it works that's OK.

    I just ordered an XL bag from Biker's Friend. Should fit the rack nicely. www.bikersfriend.com

    Thanks for the input. Which T-Bag is that you have on the back? They have a new upright bag out that looks interesting.
    Thanks!

    Saw that XKursion bag. Looks real good but I'm burned out on trying to make roller bags work. If you get it, sure would like to know how you like it.
    Thanks for the input!

    Uh..it's the one I bought from a friend. I'll go look for a number or some other marking.
    Pretty sure it's part of a "system" of bags.
    The main bag has a center compartment, two sides pouch and a front pouch ( = lumbar support)
    Then the "depth charge" (thanks Stro!) bag clips on top.

    Where have you been Bruce? I have the same bag, easy on easy off, simple to get to the hotel room, holds a lot. Only complaint, it sits rather tall on the back of the bike, which is truthfully a small concern as it really is a great bag.
