Back pack. I want a tail bag but I think I would always worry about it falling off or being stolen.
Not that it can't be stolen, but my tail bag clips go under my passenger's seat, holding it in its place and also requiring the passenger seat to be removed (which needs the key) in order for the tail bag to be removed. Obviously you could cut it and steal it if you really wanted to, but I've never had any issues.
I have a huge backpack I got at a Polish discount variety store
One of the damn straps came loose in a heavy rain!!! I had wifey reenforce both sides and it's been alright so far.
Generally I don't carry much anyway... I have some soft saddlebags for when I need to haul more but thats about it. When I go to work I usually take a little bookbag.
Commute daily on my ZX10R. I ride w/ an Icon Squad II backpack. I'm currently trying to get it warrantied, as this's my 2nd one and it's failing as well.
I need to find a high visibility backpack solution for commuting to work daily.
I put all of my gear in my backpack once at work, and then of course put my lunch in my work refrigerator.
I have yet to find a saddle bag or rear-bag solution of any kind for a ZX10R, so I'll stick to backpacks and big ass heavy jackets for the cold weather riding.
As of right now, this is my only vehicle. The wife drives my Chevy to work & back everyday because of the kids, so I'm on the bike. No matter what the weather.
