If some smart guy would come up with a clean mounting scheme to set a box over the pillion seat I'd buy it.

Hey, that's a good idea. I remember there was a fella that used to use a regular topbox on the rear seat of His C10. That was way before we added the C14 forum, though. Good idea.

Don't care for em. Looks like a UFO is following the bike down the road. Way back there, and up high.

I couldn't agree more. I think they look absolutely horrible/crazy. But if you need the storage, sometimes ya gotta bend.

...or get a dry bag.

jamiemac...what did you get from the Superstore?

Same thing. I reordered the Nelson Rigg Hih-Vis Adventure bag in large size. Had to pay 5 bucks more for it, but still free shipping. It holds 72 liters!!

If you fill it full you're gonna look like a big high vis balloon driving down the road. 72 litres is huge. At least with a dry bag it's only as big as you pack it.
Have fun on your trip.

Haha! No doubt! I'm hoping the color matches up with My Hi-Vis jacket pretty well. Thanks for the well wishes on My trip. I so stoked about it!

Get one big enough to transport a dead hooker without the need to cut her up. Much cleaner that way....

Haha! Awesome!! You could get a couple a midgets in there, and have a traveling midget wrestling show!

I'm not sure you could get them both in with the dead hooker.

jamiemac · « **Reply #31 on:** April 02, 2013, 04:57:04 PM »

Nobody has the Hi-Vis bags in stock! Motorcycle Superstore was a bust. So now, I'm Checking ebay, and find one for 80 bucks. Score!

jamiemac · « **Reply #32 on:** April 10, 2013, 05:32:59 PM »

OK, I still haven't given up on getting one of these bags, but I have been refunded My money by every accessories outlet on the net, because of inventory mistake. Not looking good. I really want this bag.

Haha. Thanks, anyways! I emailed them with a WTF question, and evidently a new supply is 60 days out. I found 2 online vendors this evening that show in stock, and I'm going to call them tomorrow.

Damn slow boat from China.

jamiemac · « **Reply #36 on:** April 11, 2013, 01:12:11 PM »

Found an ebayer that has 3 black ones. So I ordered one from them. I messaged them, and they said they verified the inventory. Hooahh! Not the best price though.

No but there is a Bass Pro here in Clarksville. They have some ATV type bags, but they are way expensive, and don't look adaptable to a motorcycle. They also have some duffle type drybags in the camping dept, but they don't have straps or buckles for bike mounting. I'm about 90% confident, I really have the Nelson Rigg bag en-route, this time. Haha

Seemed pretty reasonable to me at Cabelas, and a cargo net is your friend when it comes to mounting solutions.
