Thank you for posting this. I bought a backpack a few weeks ago (used $5) for added storage for trips to the store and work. I was ok with wearing it on my back when needed. Saw you video and and hour or so that evening had a great looking sissy bar bag. Thanks so much and keep posting!

Hey man. Thanks for this video. I ordered mine off Amazon up here in Canada. $25. It’s like a 20L pack. One of the best DIYs I’ve done to my bike and I’ve done a lot. Cheers brother!

Just bought a bike after about 15 years of not riding and looking at storage found this. The first thing that popped into my head: Nice CVMA beanie! Going to check out a meeting soon myself after an old Battalion buddy of mine suggested it. Thanks for the video!

Been considering doing this to my tactical bag. It has removable straps and d rings. Have a sissy bar/ backrest but no carrier which would be useful.

Maybe 8 years ago I did this, but with an old tank bag. Instead of a water bladder, it had a pocket that held backpack straps. I split the bottom and sewed the edges. Slipped right over the sissy bar

Nice video! I have been looking for a cheap way to add a bag on my bike. Having said that I don’t like bags on my style Of bike really. However been many times I could use one. What you did is give me an idea for modifying a backpack to just go over my backrest, with no luggage rack. I hope it when I get it done it’s secure without a luggage rack. Thank You for putting this idea into my head

I have the same pack! But mine is black. I'm going to ride the dragons tail next month with some buddies and this is the perfect solution for me! Thanks my dude!

Could instead make a pvc frame to fit into the water bladder slot to create stability and not have to compromise the bag. Cool idea thought 💭 looks solid.

I have to say this - I'm trying to pay attention because this is great but I am stunned by your handsome handsome good looks!!! I had to say it. Back to business I have been pricing sissy bars and backpacks etc and this is great. Now I'll try to pay more attention. I have a Dyna FXDB. :)

Would some kind soul throw a link to a pack you bought and got this setup working? Seemed to be quite a few on Amazon that were similar but not the same wrt the bladder/strap setup. Thanks.

Military surplus bags make for the best sissybar bags. A little mod here and there, and you've got something that'll outlast the other name brands out there.
