Luggage on Apex/Attak -- what do you use?

For those who use luggage for long distance trips on your Apex or Attak, what do you use?

My girlfriends sled LOL...

I dunno how it would look so all I have is the tank bag. I guess a backpack would be good enough since all you would have is a change of underclothes and hygiene stuff.

How does the tank bag attach? The usual snaps and velcro?

Velcro....

I used the underhood bag and tankbag. Not all that impressed w/ the Tank Bag. Mine is already tearing by the fuel tank opening from taking it on/off multiple times, velcro is no longer sticking, the tank bag itself doesn't stay put if you have it packed pretty full. The side pockets don't hold as much as you might think because they are hard to close. Good for MAPS, and other light-weight small items.

For next year I'm all setup with the RX1 saddle bags and I'm thinking that will give me the extra storage room I need and be much easier to take in/out of hotel/cabin.

Yamaha Combination Sport Luggage Bag. Great for 2-4 night trips, even did a 6 night trip. Been using this bag for 4 seasons on different sleds and not one problem.

Yami Tank bag as well as Yami soft saddlebags(which are too small by the way)

The sport luggage works great. Just be sure the clips on the side straps are secured tight before riding. My left side clip opened and the bag flipped over to the right and hit the track. Shredded one side of it pretty good. I think I might have hit the clip with my boot.

Don't know the item #'s but I have the saddle bag ($99) tank bag (pictured above), windshield bag, and a nose cone bag. Yamaha luggage is Quality stuff and looks great.

Doesn't the tank bag get in the way of the "rider forward" position? Anyone have a picture of the bag on their sled?

Funny you should say that because that is what I thought when I bought it. Believe it or not I found it to work way better on My Attak than the RX-1 from last year.

I use the under hood bag and windshield bag. I use the trunk storage alot.

I personally prefer storage units to keep my extra luggage. I took the services of Capitalselfstorage for Storage in Mitchell. I am sure you will also like their services.

I use a windshield bag and occasionally Yamaha semi rigid saddle bags on my Apex. Don't recall which part number they are, but they drape over the trunk flap and down the sides of the seat. It has 3 pockets. No issues with either bag.
