I won't carry on my body when on the bike. I keep it in my tank bag. When I get off the bike, I can always discretely slip the pistol into my jacket or my helmet. I don't need immediate access since I don't shoot left handed. If a bad situation arises, the throttle will do more good for removing me from trouble than the pistol.

I don't want to have the pistol holstered on me in case I fall off. I don't particularly care to land on the gun or have it come free if I bail. A state trooper told me that if he were me that he'd always have a gun available when on a bike.

Early one morning during dove season a couple of bird hunters pulled an Easy Rider on me trying to scare me with their shotgun. They did a fine job of it. I felt the blast from their shotgun roll across my back and the back of my helmet. I gassed it and got the heck out of there. Shooting back would have made no sense.
