And then you ride by and knock your friends over with your gigantic luggage racks!

Rogue, I'll have to see if I can find the set I bought last year for the Indy trip. It was about $100 i think, had everything, (tail, tank and 2 saddlebags) and while not as big as some or expensive, it was more than enough for my little self and worked very well. Then I strapped the backpack with raingear and laptop for a back cushion, it worked GREAT! What silly person WEARS a backpack for long trips? That equals instant backache no more than a bit into a trip, been there, done that, learned lesson!

Dont forget folks, if theres a Post Office nearby, you can also save yourself some trouble of repacking for the return trip (if you buy things) and mail some of your stuff back home before you leave!
