IWB with a tshirt or in a vest pocket. I carry a 1911 or xd45. Also a P3AT in back pocket.

I do not go into anyplace that is 30.06 (they aint gettin a dime of mine) or 51%.

There are many ways to carry and ride. My wife wears a fanny pack whe she rides

I carry a 357 LCR at about 2:00 IWB tuckable holster and that works perfect for me and no chance of the wind blowing up my t-shirt (I put the edge of the t-shirt under the holster clip). Since I ride a Heratige Softail my sitting position is straight up, I doubt that would work on a sport bike or one that you need to lean forward on.

Back when I rode, I started out carrying my XD9SC in a Supertuck or Galco Tuck n Go. The riding position on a GSXR makes wearing it other than 4 oclock uncomfortable. My shirts started out tucked in but as I move and ride, it would end up getting untucked. I wore a fitted leather jacket that rides up when you're tucked on the highway. I've rode with friends alongside and they have pointed out to me that my firearm was exposed. After a couple of times, I just put it in my backpack if I ride.

That is what I'm thinking will happen on my CBR. I don't tuck unless it is raining and I'm trying to protect electronics in my pocket (rare in El Paso). My Mesh jacket stays fairly low right now but I'm sure that will change if there is something to catch it.
