I need more baggage in my life (Read 117 times)

Doug B Full Member Offline I am, therefore I think Posts: 175 Kennewick, WA Gender:	I need more baggage in my life 07/15/13 at 12:40:59 When I bought my bike last August I also bought a backpack. It's a Fieldline($30.00 at Walmart). I'm now in the market for something that will carry more when needed. I like what I've seen regarding the Kuryakyn Grantour bag. Have any of you used this bag, or would recommend something else ?

A box on the back of the seat & whammo! youre good for grocery shopping & a trip to Lowes,

I put a large kury bag on the back of my wifes 2004 savage. But I added a larger homemade sissy to fasten it to. I also added a one foot square piece of 3/8" plywood as a base for it to sit on.

JOG/OR thanks for the ideas JOG : did you make what you described - and if so can you post a photo ? OR : no - I don't have a rack or sissy bar I watched a video on the Grantour bag showing a secured fit(with just straps) and its use as a backrest I'm unsure of the effectiveness of either-but the video sure talks a good game Undecided

It's just the right size to fit on the passenger seat and makes a nice drivers backrest, plus it holds alot of stuff. I put a piece of foam in the pocket for the backrest. And it's a cooler if you need one. AL
