RE: [ST] No Triumph Tank Bags......

[george <gkeslin@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good idea but I pack my tent, sleeping bag, and a few other miscellaneous 
things on the pillion.  That helps keep the center of gravity lower than if 
I tied them onto the luggage rack (that's where I put my rain suit).  And 
not to be a smarta$$ but it would be kinda hard to read a map that's behind me.
