Currently I'm using an "Amphibious" brand dry bag in 45Liter size. It's a heck of a great bag but I find it a bit too small as it won't hold all the camping gear I carry for myself + my wife. The bag is very tough material, rigid enough that it nearly holds its shape, it has more lash down points and D-Rings than I care to count, a mesh pocket on the outside. Its a "roll top" design, that has an over-flap for added waterproof security and has never let me down. It also has 4 reflective strips on the bag for visibility.
Considering upsizing to something in the 60 to 70 liter size range.
Amphibious makes a 60L, 24.5" wide. 4 reflective strips, mesh exterior pocket, lots of tie down points.
SW-Motech makes 60L that is 27.5" wide. No reflective strips, no exterior pocket, minimal tie down points.
Oxford has a 70L that is 25.5" wide. No reflective strips, exterior zipper pocket, minimal tie down points.
FirstGear has a 70L that is 28" wide. No reflective strips, exterior zipper pocket, lots of tie down points.
What works for you? Photos if possible.
Most of the photos below are "stock images" of what I am using.
And here it is strapped across my Dale's Rack. The bag is approx 22.5" long. If it was any longer it would make it difficult to access the side luggage while still strapped to the bike.
