Re: 2 up riding and saddlebags
Try this: http://www.fz6-forum.com/forum/fz6-m...07-fz6-s2.html (iMods 2007 FZ6 S2)

I have 21 liter hardcase Givi saddlebags, matched with 39 liter topcase also from Givi. Haven't done 2up ride yet, But I sat on the back myself and there's plenty of room for the passenger. I also installed backrest for my topcase.
Good Luck.

Yea, something like that.
I had it all the way up, 7 I believe. Bike rode great with the load on her.
And that is the Nelson Rigg bags, not sure on what they are called, but those are the mini-Saddle bags. It was a combo if I am not mistaken.

The very top bag is the AXO tail bag in CF. Worked great for holding my camera, Jordans stuffed animal, wallet, keys, sunglasses, hat... that kinda stuff.

Re: 2 up riding and saddlebags
The best saddlebag option, in my opinion, is the GIVI V35 hardbags with the Motech rack.

Those look really good. Might be an option for later on down the road.
