Not unless you count the several I wear around my middle.
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car

A "large", yes. An "extra large" would be too big. I've also carried at different times: 2 30-packs of beer. 3 gallons of paint. A flag and flagpole kit - the kind that mounts on a wall - about 3 foot long in the package. A buckhorn handlebar. And finally, a tupperware container full of a dessert called striped delight, which is made with pudding, cream cheese, and Coolwhip. It was more like a soup by the time I reached my destination.... 
More flags
More fun!

Never a pizza, but 2 bags of Taco Bell and the wife with a XL soda in each hand.

Actually, yes, more than several times I have picked up pizza on my way home from work. I have that luggage rack on it and use bungee cords.

Yes, about 40 years ago. I was 20 or so with my 1st bike,a Honda CB160. Laid the pizza across my lap and kept my left hand on top of carton. Only used clutch to start. Pulled the bike into the car port along side the car instead of in front on the car where I usually parked it.
The pizza was cold.
The CB160 was stolen that night.
Never tried it again.
Another of lifes lessons.

Tried it once by putting the pizza in a backpack. I wouldn't recommend it - it wasn't pretty.

Not a pizza. But lots of other things. Carried a cv half shaft strapped onto the pillion sideways, a 10.2inch portable dvd player in the left saddlebag and a dvd case in the other saddle bag last night. routinely carry a case of brews strapped to the pillion home from BJ's wholesale club... Carried a set of bridgestone spitfires, two tubes, rims strips, and such home last Friday. Lynn says to me last night, "you're getting pretty good at strapping things on to your motorsickle"

yes, but they were frozen pizzas (had pizza oven). very easy to bungee on, the case of beer that was with them was more of a challenge.

Is that Dwight, "Mr. Golden State", "Mr. West Coast" implying that he knows a good pie. Phew! And I thought I'd heard everything.
Have thrown a 12 pack on the lap to get it home. On the TBA I did that once after the new paint. OMFG, looked like it scratched the crap outta the paint. Phew! Thank goodness it just marred the wax. Lesson learned --> luggage rack and spider net + strip, re-wax and buff.

I have and more than once. The cheese usually shifts some but if tired down level it isn't too bad. Also make sure it is secure since the wind tries to catch it.

Not eatin' in general big D. Plenty of fine food out there. Just never experienced anything even close to a good pizza anytime I have been out there. But being you are married to such a fine looking bambina, maybe, just maybe, you might know what good pie is. (No double entendre intended whatsoever.)
