Luggage

For you guys with the high pipes....... What do you use for soft luggage on the back. I recently picked up a Nelson Rigg Sport Tailpack which is good and large, but I see the need for more storage in the future. I'll be getting a tankbag early next year and I'm wondering if there is the possibility of mounting saddlebags with my high mount TB exhaust.

Any suggestions?

Yes, you can mount saddle bags with your high-mount. The Givi bags hard bags will clear the pipe. These work: Click me

Thanks VL4L but I was looking for soft bags as the hard stuff is a bit spendy.

The Cortech full size soft saddlebags have an angled cut on one end, which is exactly why I originally bought them for my SV650;

Cortech :: Luggage :: TriBag Saddlebag

I think that they were originally designed to have the angled part face forward, but turning the angle to the back provides the muffler clearance I was looking for. They hold quite a bit of clothing.

Soft Luggage and High Pipes

You should check out RKA Luggage. If you have any questions, call Richard or Kathy and they will let you know all the particulars.
