Anybody own one of these? And if so, any feedback, positive or negative?

Can't seem to find any dimensions? It almost looks small, not sure how much storage is actually gained.

I've got one made by Kuryakyn fits the rack well. I do line it with a large trash bag to keep my clothes dry ( NOTICE it claims weather resistant material NOT WATERPROOF....It will get your clothes wet in a turd floater however with the plastic bag inside it's all good  cooldude  ) . You can fit a weekend trip worth of clothes in it easy.

"Turd Floater"?? Joe, we've got "toad stranglers" down here in Florida but I don't think I want to get caught in one of your storms!

hey, that place is only 50 miles from my house!!  too bad it wasn't so darn cold!!  they do a "will call" were you can pick up the stuff in person and save in shipping cost!!  they're in Rice Lake WI.  hard place to find, they don't have a sign on the front of thier building!!  super nice people if you stop there....

if anyone cares, Kuryakyn is in Hudson WI.....

Thanks Joe, "weather resistant" understood. Not to mention those included rain cover's usually don't withstand much under highway winds and tend to shred easily.

And thanks Jack B for the BBP discount notice, picked up a handfull of misc items. Much appreciated.  cooldude

They have some trunk handles that look like they'd work on an IS.
They also have the chrome things that go on factory hardbag tabs-got some a while back and they look good. Be sure to check their "backroom". Sometimes reaaly good stuff there for cheap.

I agree with Joe.  Turd floaters I think are worse than frog stranglers.  At least, the frogs have some means of forward motion and directional sense.  Turds don't have a choice, just have to go with the flow.   Kinda sounds like a few people I used to know.  Grin

And thus a frog could, at least for a time, survive a turd floater if he or she could maneuver among the surface clogging turds.  A frog strangler being a flood of proportions precluding amphibian survival is thus more severe than the more ordinary but voluminous turd floater.

Actually there may be a lesson in that. Going with the flow will get you somewhere, maybe not what you wanted to head for, but somewhere.
Works best for those who don't want to work at getting anywhere.

They do have a rain cover that you unzip a compartment pull it out and cover the bag, never had one leak with it on.
