I am looking for a good bag to use for short trips. I want the bag to attach to my sissy bar and sit on the passenger part of my seat. I do NOT have a rack.
I am torn between the the T-Bags Helmet Bag and the Kuryakyn roll bag.

Anyone had any experience with these. They are both about the same price so any input would be helpful.

I picked up a small bag on eBay for $64.00 works Great!!! It's made for a sissy bar, but it straps down great to my solo Rack!! :D

I use a magnetic tank bag that works like those T bags- wrap the magnetty flaps 'round the sissy bar and sits on the pssgr seat. My criterion for purchase- it could fit a sixer of longnecks :drinkbeer

I second the Neslon Riggs packs. I have a survior series daytriper that is waterproof (without needing a cover) and it only cost me about $80. I have used it for the past two years and it will hold a weeks worth of clothes.

I agree with Engine, unless your on a long run(4 on 5 days), because I notice a huge difference in performance(wind drag and such) when I throw the bags on.
For small trips I perfer stapping a M60 backpack to my back bar or on my back(less drag).
If you have to get bags try to rig them for easy removal, you will notice improved handling when they are not on.

i am just a happy customer
i have 2 of these bags
not as easy to attach as others as it doesn't have a sissy bar pocket
i have had it on my rear rack (no sissy bar), my seat ,(attached with a willie and max hooker) and have had it on my wifes savage (on the seat with sissy bar)
it holds quite a bit and i can highly recommend it ( it is also very very very afordable, read cheap)
