What kind of bag?

[jtrich]

hey guys I have another new guy question. I need something to put stuff in on my 109. I have seen saddle bags on a 109 and didn't like the look. does someone make some other kind of bag or storage for this bike? In my truck I carry a range bag for an extra credit card wallet, check book, brush for the helmet hair, alleve for the headaches and things like that. Would I look like a total nerd riding with a small pack on my back? I think so! What do you guys use?

Well....Most generally, I wear a backpack.
I'm a nerd...so it's all good for me....

If I'm riding around town, I don't bother with a back because I happen to like my helmet hair. I can tuck a do rag in my pocket if I'm worried about it.

Yes having a way to carry items is a big help. The corbin bags are very nice but large money very clean look and color matched to the bike.
Check this web page it maybe of some help

Ok, after getting caught in the rain for the first time I bought a small book sack style pack. I will see how that works and go from there. Rain stings at 55mph!
