Carrying on a motorcycle

Is it considered concealed if you have your handgun in your backpack while on a motorcycle? My motorcycle is my only form of transportation these days, and I live in Florida.

    i would check with your local authorities. were i live if its not in plain sight, or in a case, or in a locked box, trunk, etc. its considered concealed. i can even strap it on my side and drive my bike down main street and be o.k. every state has different laws

    No other helpful info from anyone else in Florida? I looked through every state statute I could find and couldn't fine anything helpful, other than finding out open carry was out of the question. [xx(]

    I ride a lot.

    I carry it on your person, not on the bike. What if you get seperated from the bike? Then you will be seperated from your weapon. In cooler weather when you wear a jacket, a shoulder holster works good, when warmer and not wearing a jacket, IWB holster works for me. IWB holster pistol fo me is a Glock 23 or a Ruger SP 101. Shoulder holster carry is a Python or Smith 1076.
