Side view close up of the backpack and helmet. My son is the model in this one so those are pretty short legs, he is 9.

Rear view close up. That's the last one. I think if I can carry 4 gallons of water to work once a week in my truck, this bag will take care of everything else; my son will carry his own backpack and have plenty of room to ride and hold on to Dad.
I love this tank bag and highly recommend it. It's not even very expensive compared to other ones I've seen. It's not HUGE, but it is extremely versatile and has good capacity. I kind of like having a low profile bag that doesn't get in my face while riding. I dont' even notice it (unlessI look at the map of course, it has a map pocket in the top [8D]).

As you can tell, I can't figure out how to embed a full size pics, let alone multiple full size pics which I think I've seen done here. What am I missing? lol

Great pictures fiz. Very helpful. I might get that Icon tank back someday, but for now my rear seat is available on the commute.
In that casewhat's the best combo tail bag & backpack?
1.) Joe Rocket space pack tail bag, $81
2.) Kawasaki tail bag, $140
3.) Cortech sport tail bag (not a backpack unfortunately), $63, http://www.newenoughhp.com/luggage/t..._tail_bag.html
4.) bungi net a standard backpack, $10 (seems clumsy and too time-consuming)
bike: '95 Ninja 500

Those are lovely photos, but I don't recommend carrying too much crap. I used to carry both wheels of my ZX9R (probably about 60 cumbersome pounds) strapped to my back, resting on the passenger seat to get new tires mounted, and I used to carry a full 110-pound Honda VTR1000 engine the same way.
Then this last may I had two herniated disks in my back that required two surgeries, and hurt like stink for four months.
Your backs are tender, delicate and not made to last the full lifespan of a human. They're the best argument against 'Intelligent Design' yet devised by man.

as far as helmet locks i like these
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2-HEL...spagenameZWDVW
the cable is long enough to pass through a full face helmet.
