I`m looking for a large capacity travel bag when set up for one-up riding.
Any good suggestions?

I have an old Gold Wing Tour (86 SEi) box bag from years ago that I net strap on mine.......

If it won't hold everything, I use one of my old sea bags from many many years ago.   Have to wrap either one in a plastic garbage bag to keep the rain out.........

I have a canoe bag that I picked up in a camping department. Bright color. Water proof. Durable. Loads and straps down like a military duffle bag. Works well to hold my sleeping bag and misc camping gear and clothes.

Dag,

I bought it from a friend of mine a few years ago. It's a Dowco  Rally Pack....really inexpensive.

http://www.cycleluggage.com/dowco_291009.html

I split it up and put the roll bag  on the back side of my backrest and the main pack sits on my seat facing backwards.

It comes with lots of long velcro straps that work many different ways. I use a bungie net to hold my extra boots on top...works pretty well for me.  I think I paid my buddy $70 for the pack about 7 years ago... now they are  only $79 new!!

Dag,

Here's another pic of my stuff... I stopped in  Lothair  Kentucky on the way to InZane 8 last year (my first name is Lothair -so I had to go there Wink )

My bags are getting a little sun bleached from too much riding...but they still work great.
