I have a gym bag w/ a board sewn in the bottom, strapped on the seat. Hangs out over the tail light. Not pretty, but it gets the bee,, groceries home.

Homemade saddlebag bracket that matches the OEM bracket that you can get from Suzuki (had it made for me) + a thick tan leather H.D. saddle bag (scabbed from an old beat up Softail) that I spray painted flat-black and added some decals. The bag is fastened to the bag bracket with sturdy zip ties that run thru some holes I drilled thru the back side of the bag. Bag is held closed with the velcro strap you see in the pic!

Now I just have to find a bag to fit my bike.  HD solo bags seem to small.

That one on my Bike is small, but large enough for a pair of gloves, sunglasses and a bottle of water ... not big enough for a weekend road trip however! Wink

I found a black canvas bag at an army surplus shop to use as a cool swingarm bag. This was the last one I did on a previous scoot... I like it when they hang low, almost dragging the ground. This bag was big enough for a couple long sleeve t-shirts, extra glasses, a drink or two & still had room for more. I will soon be looking for another one for the savage I'm building. The canvas is tough and waterproof & the velcro kept it closed up tight. The best part is that I think it only set me back about $8 and a couple thick black tie-wraps kept it in place.
