Question Travel Bag

Ok for all you folks that have the Voyager what back seat bag do you use for traveling. I have a Nelson Riggs left over from another dresser I had in 03 but am having trouble finding a place to strap the lower straps to. Other bikes seem to have passenger grab handles but not the Voyager! Getting ready for a two week trip and can use some help here.

Thanks

dave....

Do a search for a Saddlemen BR4100 back seat bag...

http://www.bing.com/search?q=saddlem...0&sp=2&sc=3-16

I just bought one of these for my current 10-day trip to the SW Regional Rally. My God, you could stuff your grandma in one of these things...and they make a GREAT backrest...although I did add a custom pad to the center section for added support...an easy fix. Good luck!

Good Lord !!!!! couldn't you find something a little bigger Kris?? What the hell do you do when Trish goes with you?? Unless you're carrying enough "apple pie" for everyone at the SW rally, that thing has to be over kill. I'm lucky if I fill both saddle bags when I go away. I saw Brads pic. of the rooms there in Kanab and I doubt you'll have room for your frick'in bags !!
It looks like you could still get some more shit in your tour pak rack bag.

Oh and your photo size could be a little larger too!

How much stuff do you take that you need all that space. I could pack for all season with those bags.

We recently bought this bag to attach on the back seat. It looks very well made but we haven't tested it yet.

The same brand has a larger bag, if you're interested in this type of luggage.

I used the Kuryakyn Gran Tour pack on my Nomad. It has a pad that fits under the seat that has velcro loops as well as d-rings to attach the straps to. I just looked at my Voyager to see if it would fit under the seat. I will have to cut out a space for the rear seat latch but it should work just fine.
