 T-Bags TBU450 LoneStar with...  T-Bags TBU450 LoneStar with Top Roll & Net $289The LoneStar is another well-constructed backrest bag made of heavy-duty nylon. The bag is insulated with closed-cell foam and has a plastic bottom stiffener for support. Bike attachment is simple, with an adjustable over-the-backrest sleeve and two nylon straps for security. While it looks similar to some of the other bags, its innovative feature is the main bag's opening-when mounted on the bike, the top flap unzips and opens about halfway. Then, rather than just unzipping the rest of the way (and spilling all the contents onto the ground), the front leans out 45 degrees, held in place by gussets. When the bag is lying down, the gussets can be separated to fully open it. There's a rain cover in a zippered pocket on the main bag, a top-mounted carry handle and padded backpack straps in another zippered pocket. The main bag also has a large organizer pocket on the front and two zippered pockets on each side. The roll bag contains a foam stiffener and a small pocket on each side and can be mounted on the bike independently of the main bag. Size: 19"H x 16"W x 9"D Size (roll bag): 16.5"W x 9" diameter Volume: 2736ci/1050ci (roll bag) Warranty: Lifetime tbags.com  Tour Master Cruiser II Sissybar...  Tour Master Cruiser II Sissybar Bag XL $260The style of the Cruiser II Sissybar Bag XL is pure old-school, but the materials and construction are modern-day. The bag is made of a leatherlike synthetic material claimed to be more durable than older vinyl materials, is stain-, mildew- and rust-resistant, and is nearly maintenance-free. The three outside pockets have a Velcro-fastening lid for dust and moisture protection, and each pocket's big enough for a pair of average-sized binoculars. The front straps have hidden, quick-release fasteners that make accessing the main opening easier. However, to mount or remove the roll bag, the chromed buckle needs to be undone in order to thread the straps through the mounting points. The roll bag also has two chromed slide clips for added mounting security. There is a small pocket on each side, and the roll bag's opening is somewhat small. A neoprene pad on the bottom of the main bag keeps your motorcycle shiny. And if the skies open up, there is a full rain cover for the main and roll bags. Size: 15.5"H x 25"W x 11"D Size (roll bag): 8.5"H x 16"W x 7"D Volume: 4263ci (per manufacturer)/952ci (roll bag) Warranty: 1 year helmethouse.com
