Tail bag recommendations? - Scotty_imp - 09-07-2020

I need something modest to carry my burritos home. Getting tired of the backpack, and I can't see covering that beautiful tank. So what small carriers have been used on the seat behind the rider? Thank you

GrahamT had a Nelson Rigg tail— [url=https://www.nelsonrigg.com/motorcycle-luggage/new-tail-bags/commuter_lite-detail]this one, I think. Seemed OK.

Thank you. And before I get flamed: I did discover the Gear section of this forum and am using the search engine.

I like[url=https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sw-motech-ion-7-15l-tail-bag] this one. 7L as shown but expands to 15L if the burrito quantity demands.

Don’t worry Scotty. You won’t get flamed here. Well, unless you start an oil discussion...

I have a Nelson Rig bag on my ST1300 seat and the CB has an old Cortech (old now, I bought it new 7 years ago) Don’t know the models, but there are a lot of options.

And yes I also have top cases mounted.

Thank you too. Nice shot of it on one of our bikes.

This gives you a little fuller perspective on how it looks on the bike.

Ah, I am going to change the oil ASAP as I don't know what's in there. What do you guys think? 10W-30 v. 10W-40? Semi-synthetic v. full synthetic? OEM filter v other?



Just kidding!!! That's me joking. I am also a Toyota Land Cruiser fanatic and have rebuilt a couple engines for myself. I've definitely gone down a few rabbit holes learning about engine lube! I've also done the oil search on this Forum, lol.

Scotty, we'll tell you only once, but 'round here there's only one oil to use:




RE: Tail bag recommendations? - Scotty_imp - 09-07-2020

Whew, good - I just ordered some off Ebay last night. Glad to know I got the good stuff.
