I recently moved out of the city and into the country and find myself riding my bike much more, problem is, is if dont fit in my pocket I cant carry it.
I never really liked the look of saddlebags but I see there going to be a neccesity, does somebody make them were you can install and uninstall them quickly?, looking for something durable as my bike is going be my main mode of transportation.
Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated. Thanks, Craig

CWW,
Brent from new bonneville.com can help out with a set brackets for eay removal of any bag you hook to them. You never said whether you rode 1 up or not but I'll assume you do. the brackets work even with a passenger and have a nifty key lock you use to remove the bags and bracket. Nice thing is when you finally take the bracket/bags off you can they were ever there. After typing all this I noticed your post date and figure you probably already have this resolved! <sigh> Anyway the brackets are about $120 and the bags, well you know how that goes. Hope it helps.

It's not really a saddle bag but it carries all my stuff to work and is very easy to remove when I get there. It also acts as a backrest and ended the back pain I used to get when riding for long distances. http://www.bikersfriend.com/

Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

Thanks Trumpy and ladisney, I'll check out both, I do have a luggage rack and see Bikersfreind has one that will fit it, may be an easy fix. Thanks, Craig

Mine is the XL, the large has the same diameter but is shorter. The XL sticks out more on the sides but carries a lot more too.
