Any good bags that don't require rack/bracket? (lemmy.world)

MT-09 owner, no rack/bars/brackets back there just the passenger pegs to strap to. Any luggage suggestions?

You need a luggage rack extension. Plenty of aftermarket sources for one. Google "mt-09 luggage rack". Then you can mount a trunk or saddle bags.

Eh, don't really want a rack on my bike. Thanks though.

Whatever you do, make it safe. Was headed from Lassen National Park when a bike about 1/4 mile down the road went down. He had a pack strapped to his seat (no rack). Loose ends got tangled in the chain and pulled the whole thing into the rear wheel.

Ouch, yeah I hadn't thought about that but will for sure. Sounds like a bad time!
