I have a Nikon D80 with a 18-135 lens (UV filter which stays on), SB600 flash, remote shutter release, small portable tripod and a regular tripod. Everything except the reg tripod goes into a well-padded camera bag and this is carried in my topbox. When I get off the bike to do a little walk-about, the helmet and gloves go in the topbox and the camera bag goes over my shoulder. Works well for me.
I also have a waterproof Fuji compact (quality only mediocre) that I keep in a jacket pocket and can be pulled out easily for a quick shot.
I have a Ram-ball on the handlebars and often use this instead of getting out the tripod or if I don't have it with me, works very well.
