    It depends if you will be traveling solo and for how long you're going.
    If solo, and for 2-4 days, you can easily pack all you need in Kreiga. US-20 plus one or two US-10 on the back seat is the best option.
    No baggage rails, quick installation.

    Use the supplied straps to attach via subframe, easy to do.

    When we do the TT on bikes my mate sends his gear through the post. I use Ventura.

    Add a US-10 or even US-20 as a tanbag, and you will be fine.
    I did 11 days, with the girlfriend (!) and we were fine with US-20 + 2xUS-10 on the back and US-20 as a tankbag...
    so you travelling solo should also fine! Unless you need a hairdryer, pillow and a bathrobe ;-) hahahahaaaa!

    Kriega for me too mate. R20 + R10's on either side will do just fine. Have a look at their website..

    Another one here for Kriega. Got a couple of US10s, a US20, an R30 backpack, Kube pocket (thanks Mr B) and a tank adapter. Good quality kit too as some of my bits are over 6 years old and are still in excellent condition.

    Kreiga US 20 plus US 10 strapped on top should be ample.
