Tail Packs

I have a discontinued Iron Rider roll bag. I used it for touring on my Honda and I thought it looked fine on the Mandello. Perfect for what I lug around day to day, and on trips I like easy access (each stop) to water, readers, phone, wipe rag, change of gloves, etc - less fiddly than the side cases for such things.

Interesting to see tailbag options.
No need to invest in that myself yet though.
If needed I will just use a Drybag and strap on the passenger seat.
I managed a four days 1400miles trip with just the OEM panniers, and then I even stuffed in a 5 liter petrol container (plus an empty Drybag as a spare).

What bike model is the black one behind the V100 btw?
Just noticing that it also have headers pointing sideways, just like the V100.

Honda CTX 1300 - a one year (2014) production. It is related to the ST Pan-European, with the same basic engine, but re-tuned for more low end. A cruiser tourer.
 
Thank you all very much for your contributions; I have ordered the SW-Motech bag
 
SW makes quality stuff. Tho not a tail bag, I have their ring attachment day tank bag. Well made, quick release. Perfect for a day ride. 😁
