How do you carry your golf clubs on your motorcycle?


I'm looking for a cheap used bag right now. I'll put a u-bolt
through the bottom and fasten it to
the passenger peg. Then I can use bungee cords or straps to tie
the top of the bag to the luggage
racks. Should work well.

I don't like the fact that I can't take my cart also. That
means either renting a walking cart. But,
walking carts are usually pretty cheap. I've also thought
about taking the top case off the back,
which would leave room for my cart. But, I use the top case a
lot. Decisions, decisions.

The Salvation Army wants $29.95 for each of the half dozen bags
the local store has in stock. And,
they're all crap.

I have your solution!

Side-car.


No way.

I made a shotgun rack for my Super Glide. It was welded steel and
bolted to the windshield mounts on the front fork.

Maybe you could come up with something like that. My golf bag right
now is a "back niner", that is a soft bag made out of Cordura.

I'm sure my idea of mounting the bag on the passenger peg will
work. On my Guzzi, the passenger peg
is very low. My bike isn't a crotch rocket.

But, the bag must have a good, hard bottom - something I can attach
a muffler clamp or u-bolt to.

That's right over the exhaust!

So are a passenger's feet! It's not that hot, especially when the
bike's in motion. This is doable,
I say. My son-in-law is a big wig with Goodwill, so he's going to
check out some Goodwill stores for
me. I'll bet they're a lot cheaper than Salvation Army.

If you sold that monster truck you can't afford to use, you could buy
yourself a nice, spiffy, economical RAV4 and toss your golf bag in the
back.



They are fine for women and gay men but they are hardly a truck.
