Hey All,
I just accepted a position out in tulsa, OK and will need to relocate from central Virginia. I am looking at driving the bike out (one up) in the next month so I can enjoy the weather and take in the sights. Looking at my current bags, I realize I need a much greater capacity and want to get a full set of soft / modular touring bags. Tail Bag, Saddle, and Tank. I dont really like the look of the roll type bags, but would be willing to consider them if enough people have had good experiences.
I will need to carry my laptop and general accessories that I keep in my backpack, but I hate riding with this for long distances. I also will obviously need to carry changes of clothing, and the other asundry equipment a long haul requires.
I have been partial to Nelson-Rigg in the past, but they seem to be on the smaller side. I also am wanting to keep with one manufacturer so the bags will be interchangable/configurable depending on what I need for a specific trip when I am driving across all parts of oklahoma and the central US.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a single vendor which would provide me with a decent capacity and durability?
Suggestions?
