Looking for the Perfect Tail Bag

[Old N' Grumpy]

Those all look good; however, this old decrep has bad hips and knees that do not allow the extra high leg swing over such a high bag.
I try to get as much space as possible and keep it low under the back rest height.
I have found a water-proof rafting bag durable, flexible an large enough for almost anything I wish to carry.
It is also just one bag to carry . . .

I run this bag in hi-viz yellow:

Microfiber between the bag and paint is a great idea!

Swing a leg over ? I haven't done that in years. I grab the lower leg of my pants and pull one foot high enough to clear the seat.

When you cant get your leg over ........

Time to buy a scooter. And masses of Viagra.

Good eye, Amigo!
Has worked well for over two years with no paint damage so far.
I always carry a half dozen of them - handy buggers they are!
They also provide good padding for important stuff in the tank bag . . .

Girley-MAN!!!
1) Do you pee sitting down?
2) My leg would NEVER bend enough even if I did want to do that!

Hey Steve how do you arrange your stops so you are always near one of these!

Or do you carry you own ladder?

Or is this your preferred method?

Whenever I have too much on the back seat, or an over eager passenger that jumps on first, I stand on the foot peg to step over the seat.

I had a friend who was a stripper. She always got attention when she lifted her leg straight up in the air to mount the bike.
