Looking for ideas and pictures for top back bag

[spyder-dude]

On my first spyder GS I had the corbin saddle bags and looking for options for my new RSS. Debating on the BRP R35 saddle bags or maybe just a larger top bag. I only really need the extra space when doing longer trips.

Can anyone suggest a nice quality top bag that will fit on the back seat or sport rack? Please post link or pictures.

Thanks much,

Shawn

Yup, Fire and I have Givi monolock bags...the mount bolts onto the sport rack (Fire did this for me so that I wouldn't drill through my hand)...there are several sizes of hard cases that work. I went with the 46 or 47 L one...never enough space for all my crud...if you want a pic, I can take one for you and post here...IMHO, it's the best way to go..I also got the light strip that is attached to my brake lights...looks awesome and works great!

Nancy has the rear seat bag, and it is nice, but not real big. Not necessarily waterproof in a driving rain, either. I like to just strap on a Helen2Wheels bag or a Seal-Line waterproof bag. There are other, similar waterproof duffles. Here are pictures with one of each, plus my tent and sleeping pad.

This is quite functional, is safe and secure, and fits the lines of the bike nicely...plus, that back center bar works as a brake light...and yes, it does come off...when I take it off, I attach the BRP soft rear bag...it clips in nicely onto the sport rack...
