Tailbag vs. Saddlebags vs. Tankbags for VIR

YOU need a tankbag to carry your toothbrush/paste, clean undies, and contact lens cleaner. As long as the tire repair and tool kits fit under your seat, anyways.


SHE needs... Well....



B-Bags Speedpack:

YES - It's every bit as huge as it looks....


Actually, it's really nice - The top section straps down and can actually be fairly small, it's pretty water resistant all by itself, and comes with a waterproof cover, and the entire thing comes off the bike as a single unit that you can carry by it's shoulder strap.


You could also browse http://www.chaseharper.com for more bags than you know what to do with.

I actually prefer a small~ish tankbag, and either a tail pack or saddlebags, depending on the length of the trip. For 4 days I would use a tailpack/tank bag with a couple pairs of black jeans/decent shirts (so you can eat at a decent place), and figure on living the trip up and back in my leathers.

If you want, http://www.aerostitch.com have underthings you can wash in your hotel room in the evening since they'll dry overnight.
