Doers anyone have any tips for transporting 2 piece or 4 piece rods via motorcycle?  The 4 pieces are just barely too long to fit in the tour pack or the saddle bags, but it would make getting down to the Rap so much faster if I could take the HOT lanes.  Considering backpack with tube or affixing a tube to the bike, but open to ideas/solutions.  I attached a picture of my bike in case it helps and thanks in advance for any insight!

P.S.) I have considered buying a 7 piece for this exact purpose

Maybe mount something like this to the rear of the chrome on your hard sided saddle bag (see attached)




If I used it, I think I would want a bungee cord attached to the trunk for further secure my rod, or some other additional security for the rod, even it were as simple as drilling two holes
in the side of the rod holder, and using sting (parachute cord or a thin bungee cord) to better secure my rod within the rod holder, and make sure it doesn't bounce around or bounce out.
