To go back on topic for a sec, I got my bag in the mail the other day. Looks realy nice. May have 2 mounting choices, one witht he bungee hooks attatched or with clips if i can attatch it directly to the seat. A few guys have tabs for that so I may look into it.

I'm with Rogue, I simply use a backpack and bungee net to hold my stuff on the tail/rear seat and then I can carry it pretty easy when I get where I'm going. I do have what has to be the largest trunk on the 929 though, so that pack will be doing a lot more staying at home now.

I've mailed clothes back on TDY's and stuff, but I usually just wash my shit and pack it back in. Hell, ebbs if you're driving your truck I'll just throw some crap in there. I'm only bringing a small backpack's worth of clothes, and that'll get knocked out at a laundrymat. The only thing I don't like carrying around is dirty underwear and socks, but I'll just throw them away and buy new.

I am seriously thinking about putting a hitch on my bike. I can get a good deal on a trailer, and a hitch makes it easier to mount parade flags. Might have to happen.
