There's been a lot of discussion related to this question on this site in the past few months (you can search motorcycle carry on the forum)...

I'm not a lawyer but I have locked my pistol in a Nanovault placed it in my saddle bag and locked it to my bike with the cable. I only do this in a pinch and only when I will be within sight of my bike.

Others may have a better view of the actual legal answer to your question.

My two cents...
