I am into desktop support which involves few tools and a few disks etc,
but I often regret lugging a laptop, one arm longer than the other,
whereas on the back, balanced loaded, hands free etc. We did the
backpack thing in Europe last year. Security is a problem! :-)
Less so here.
There are plenty available, so using others experience will make that
easier. The padding seems important. Underneath, so when you put it on
the pavement? I ride a Suzuki 650 when I can, but I cannot plan for
canning out. No padding will withstnd that. I know. It hurts. :-)
