I am currently riding a supermoto (DRZ400) and FZ-8. I was just wondering what rig you guys use when riding? I sometimes go with a Galco Miami Vice Shoulder Rig, but just curious what others have experimented on. I have tried appendix and it wasn't all that pleasant when riding on the fz-8, but somewhat ok on the Supermoto, even though they have similar stance.
I've crashed only once and decided that I didn't want anything hard and solid on my body, in any position, when I ride. Fanny pack in a side bag or helmet bag, goes on me when I get off the bike.

I carry every time I ride. Usually at 4 oclock.
Yes, always. just ahead of 3 o'clock.

Always carry on a bike. Everyone wants to kill you, even many M4C members.
I keep a G43 in the pocket. I don't like the tourists staring when my shirt rides up and shows off the gat.
I don't always, people seem to like me. :sarcastic:
Primarily I carry a Glock 43. On my dual-purpose (KLR650) in a backpack or in the tank bag - generally backpack. On my Street Glide, generally in my front pocket.
I used to carry at 4:00 on my dirt bike and ATV. After ejecting a couple pistols at high speed through the bumps (even out of a quality Kydex holster), I switched to an Alaskan Sportsman chest holster. Any quality chest holster will do. Mine will fit over my chest protector as well.
Same method of carry. G19 or G26 in a Milt Sparks IWB. Riding jacket covers it. Suzuki GSX1340.

IWB, under a one-piece riding suit. Not very easy to access... But it's not really for when I'm riding, I just usually want to be carrying at whatever my destination is.
PPS in a DeSantis OWB. Heritage Softail.

OH, and AIWB does NOT work for my riding style.

ElectraGlide w G19 OWB Kydex by Xconcealment at 3-4 o'clock. Same as when I'm walking or in my car etc...Consistency ya know.
I do, usually at the 4. However my vest has a built in set up I sometimes use. I use that less for two reasons; one I usually carry off a belt and dont want to switch it up that often and two because it is a "universal" fit so it works with most all guns but none all that great.
I always carried, I used to commute for a few years on a bike. Sometimes tank bag but more often on body. With M/C's come crashes so on body carry can be cause for concern in that case. I was always worried that a group would push me off or the bike over and I'd be parted from my tank bag and unarmed. Eventually I settled on my 340pd J-frame on the inside pocket of my riding jacket. Not the best place, but clearly not the worse for any of the given scenarios. The one holster I wanted but never got was this one for a Glock 26/27, I think it would work well;

I always carried in a galco shoulder holster when I rode. The few times I carried on my hip it was exposed right away from the wind

Always G19 in a high noon sky high leather retention holster at 4. Jacket or vest covers it well.
