I just wear the same hip holster (owb) that I always do. I do use a retention holster though, so I am not worried about it falling out.

I also make sure I wear a long enough ajcket or vest to cover it while riding. If I am just walking, people see the badge and don't seem to care, but I think a guy on a bike with a gun would get a lot more calls in and they would not notice the badge in front.

Ankle holster or jacket/vest inside pocket. Waist carry doesn't work for me when riding without an extra long coat.

Pocket carry my LCP.

I don't like to waist band carry on the bike so I'll leave it in the saddlebags and discreetly transfer when I get where I gone. :headscratch

Ankle carry Kahr P9, and a USPf 45 in a shoulder rig under a leather vest.

Sounds like a shoulder rig might work?

I use IWB. I can keep it covered with just a t-shirt. When it is cooler I just throw on my jacket over that. I havnt had any problems carrying my Kimber, both 4" or 5".
