Default would you wear one of these?

A new fangled kind of fanny pack motorcycle carrier thing? Would you wear one?

I'd say this is a problem we all face at one stage or another while riding our motorcycles. Where to put all your personal stuff, like loose change (for toll booths), credit card, mobile phone, keys and/or garage door opener.

When you've got leathers, there's very little you can do. Or you've got to place some waterproof holder on your motorcycle, but that'll look ****ty.

A fanny pack would be one solution, but having your stuff behind you is not ideal. I often face the problem when I'm at a toll booth. I need to get to my cash or credit card rapidly, taking my gloves off, finding the cash ... it takes time.






[/align]Here's an interesting solution to the problem; the Grabit Pack .



The Grabit Pack was invented by Louis Kiss , Hollywood stuntman and Special Effects Makeup Artist. The Grabit Pack is akin to your good old cowboy gun holster.






[/align]It sits cradled on your hip (left, right or both sides, you'll need to specify when ordering), fastened to your waist and leg. The pack is water resistant.

I don't need quite that much carrying capacity, but I like the idea. Just large enough for some loose change and my garage door opener would suit me just fine.

Yeah, no fanny pack since the parachute pants went out of style. Pockets are fine, if you want to carry more stuff then buy a cruiser. I'm just saying....imo.

Cops will probably think you're "carrying" and fill you full of lead.
