Bikers' Banter

Blimey. Just took me ages to fit the throw-overs.
Don’t normally do luggage. Top box is normally enough, but I think 2 of us and 8 days might mean more than 4 pairs of knickers

For my next bike, I might invest in hard luggage

I have very similar bags on the Striple, but there's only one of me, so I don't need a top box. I use a top opening roll bag across the seat and panniers and my tyre pump and tools go ina bag on the rack.
My bags have a nifty rack that the fix to and it holds them away from the underseat pipes. The whole set up can be fitted in moments with two locking screws each side. Quick application of a 2 pence coin is all that's needed. Grown men watch with their mouths hanging open when I whip those racks on and off
