Luggage for a sport bike?

[Lugnut]

Any of you have first hand experience with luggage on a sportbike?

I'm looking for recommendations. I have an 05 Yam YZF600R and need more storage than my current tank bag gives me.

These are the ones that I was looking to get for work commute, before I moved back here. Here, I'm close enough that I just use a backpack. I don't need to transport as much back and forth here, and If I need something from home, it's a 20 minute round trip. No big deal.

But I saw these at the MC show in DC and REALLY liked them. Nice features, secure fit and large without being TOO large. STill look good on the bike.

I just don't know anything about that particular one. Depends on how big you were wanting I guess.

Even if you empty and clean it, it'll still smell like possom tails. I don't think he's gonna want it.

Good question, don't need to store a helmet but...

Mind if I take a look at it?
