I've never felt happy about attaching cameras or lenses to a vibrating part
of a motorcycle ever since opening up a bag strapped to the rear carrier and
finding that the vibration had unscrewed a tyre pressure gauge into all of
its component parts. I bought a very padded Marsand Pad-a-Pac bag and
limited my outfit to whatever I could get in there, which wasn't much, to
ride with across my shoulders. I did use to carry a 5 x 4" bungee-corded to
the seat behind me though in the days when dual seats were long enough for
two.
