Spec me a large back pack & waterproofs

edd1e · 17 Jul 2012 at 17:46

Off on a trip to the 'Ring in a couple of weeks and I really need a large back pack that is suitable for the bike and also some waterproofs as no doubt it will rain at some point.

Just wondering what every had and if they can recommend anything?

Don't really wanna spend any more than £100ish if possible.

Thanks

cheers for the link, they look good.

What do people think of these back packs?

30L Version - Clicky

50L Version - Clicky

I need to fit 4 days worth of clothes, 1 pair of trainers, toiletries and odd & sods. Not sure which size would be best or if the 50L would be to big for the bike?

I do have a pillion seat actually, not a bad idea there! I will have a look in HG. Thanks for the idea mate.

yeah it won't affect this years running and i doubt the actual track will close at all to be honest, way to much money to be made.

It's the new arena / village that has mostly caused this mess, it's always empty.

Good info here:

looks like it's just the middle bit?

how does it secure to the bike??

if i went for the link above or something like this, what is the best way to strap it down to a sportsbike ..? bungee straps or something?

EDIT: seeing good reviews for this: http://www.infinitymotorcycles.com/product/kriega-us20-tail-pack/515 Although i think I would need the 30ltr minimum? If I got the 20ltr i would still need a back pack too i think.
