Tail bag for the Downtown.
« on: March 28, 2016, 06:35:02 PM »
I’m beginning to get ready for my trip to Ottawa in september -- need to renew my passport, look into GoPro Cameras, and of course convince my wife.
With those pending can anyone recommend a good tail bag for the Downtown?

These are the few I’m looking at:

http://www.saddlemen.com/ts3200-deluxe-sport-tail-bag-universal

http://www.motosport.com/kuryakyn-deluxe-convertible-luggage-rack-bag -- better price, but I feel like it’s too small.

  I would look at suit-cases, soft side type, wheels to move them with handle on top , with  all sizes, and I think they are water proof, just not as tough as the bike ones,.   are you riding alone or in a group,  all welcome here ,.  de dee
