Unlike some BMW-riding friends (who can't resist bolting the most
god-awful-ugly-but-useful bags to their bikes), I don't have an ideal
solution. A carbon fiber Gitzo will fit across the seat (in a nylon
case) under the cargo webbing you might have seen in the photo.

A good place to look for amazing hardware is here:

The design and machine work on their equipment is a thing of beauty.
Their camera brackets are the best.

And even if you don't buy a Gitzo tripod from them, they provide an easy
to read comparison chart showing all the tripod attributes like max
height, weight, number of leg sections, etc. Very handy when trying to
decide which one's best.

Keep the shiny side up!
