However, if you have a vaild CCW permit/authorization, carry as you would as if doing anything else.
I never understand why this is a question; however, I may be missing something...as is sometimes (often?) the case.

I carry my Dan Wesson C-Bob 10MM in a Galco Miami Classic when I ride. I'm in the 49Th state, so I like to have a little extra horsepower just in case a brown or black furry-tooth-and-claws wants a closer look at me and my Nighttrain. I seldom carry on a belt as I usually wear chaps when I ride. Carry what is comfortable for you and keeps you in the leash of the law. And don't leave it in the saddlebags!! Go somewhere else.
That Highball is nice........I had a '06 Cory Ness Vegas Jackpot.

My 1911Sc in a crossbreed holster, which is the same thing I carry when I'm doing anything else.

Had an '04 Vegas until about two weeks ago when the clutch cable snapped. While it was being towed in, one of the flatbed straps broke and the bike fell over and slid along the diamond plate. Ended up with over $5000 damage so I decided to take the repair money from the towing company and put it into a new bike.

Whats the statuet of limitations? This is a 40 year old story so I should be okay. I was rideing a harley dresser and got in a terrible wreck. It was moonlight and I was surrounded by a number of people. My buddy got to me at the bottom of the road embankment I had run off at about the same time that it dawned on me that I was going to the hospital and I was armed. I asked the people, will ya step back? I want a word with my buddy here. I had a s&w model 60 in my vest pocket and palmed it to bill. They had to rope my stretcher up about 50 ft to the road I flew off of. Later I was in emergency suffering with a busted leg, cracked neck, cuts and other stuff. Here come the HP again. He ran off the nurse and said I want a word with this guy alone. He then said, what did you hand your buddy? While I thought about that one he added, I wont have no druggers on my road, someone there said ya handed yer buddy a plastic envelope!
I said look. You can check me out, I carry a revolver on the job and have a top secret clearance. I know that dont make me legal off the job, but your guy seen me palm my buddy a stainless steel snub in the moonlight I can see why he thought it looked like a plastic envelope.
He asked me was it loaded? No, I lied. Ya gonna write me up? Naw your suffering enough he said. He gave me a break! It wasnt my first or last break either. This was california 40 years ago. I suppose I wouldnt fare as well in this day and age.

Possible exposure from wind blast may be why this comes up so often. The wind can blow a loose shirt or your colors up in the back exposing a holstered gun. Not everyone wears leathers or a tight vest. I've seen more than one gun exposed on a bike. Hell I almost dropped my bike once when a state trooper friend had his off duty exposed as we passed a kindly looking pair of grandparent types. I thought it was hilarious but they probably didn't. I also have a friend who carries in his saddle bag. Secure but doesn't provide much protection.

I carry my 642 in my pocket, just like I carry everywhere else.
See your point, Pecos...understand.
When I ride it's (almost always) IWB with a tucked shirt. Too old for colors and too slow, too.
Be safe.

If your legal except flashing yourself by accident I wouldnt worry about it. Maybe grandma and grandpa were ex bikers and/or ex cops or moonshiners themselves! We all get old too.

I carry like normal, mainly a CS9 in a High Noon inside the waistband holster. I ride a Nighhawk and a Shadow. My shirt doesn't fly up like I see some people's doing.

I carry my M&P 40c in my CrossBreed SuperTuck IWB holster under my leather while I ride my bike. I just make sure I wear a bigger/longer shirt that goes past my leather so that it covers up the firearm is all. Dress to conceal the firearm, just like anything else and never, EVER leave the firearm on/with the bike instead of on your body. Just not an option.

Uncle Mike's Fanny Pack
I ride dual-sport, so whenever possible it is off the tarmac and out into the dust, water, and mud. Only a fanny pack can provide the necessary protection from the elements. With practice, a reasonably quick draw is possible. With more practice, can even do it one handed.

I carry either a 340PD or 342Ti in my jacket inside pocket that has reasonably easy access though not fast, especially with gloves on. It has a lanyard with attaches to my jacket as well.

Check out the Hide-It Holster. It sits below your belt line behind your pocket, and the holster bends so it is comfortable when sitting. I carry with one all the time.
