It's handy for my registration, tire gauge, garage door opener, etc.

Mug a metrosexual & steal his fanny pack..

I have a leather fanny pack zip tied to my bars...
.... and,.. I drive a Geo Metro...
Ahhh.... Gulp!... Huh

...

Anyway,.. the fanny pack works real well...

(I looked up "metrosexual"... and I'm not... I can't even afford to shop at the GAP)...

Here's a pic of my fanny pack,.. with my Metro in the background...

Your bike is proof enough that you arent a metrosexual,,I thot you had a fanny pack on that thing,, I forgot about the Geo, tho,, A fanny pack is easy enough to get & otta work great.
My Savage luggage is a gym bag, glued & sewn onto thin plywood with D-rings on webbing sewn in so it straps on the back lengthways, hangs out over the light. I can pack loads of stuff in that thing.

Don't put much in it if you run the cheap junk stock plastic headlight bucket...

Best made synthetic is River Road, although the buckles rust pretty quick. Best leather is... wait for it... synthetic.

Best looking? Willie and Max, but I hope you know how to sew... the seams are not rolled in and the thread they use is pretty flimsy. I took mine apart, put welting (burgundy vinyl over string trimmer line, hand sewn) in the seams, sewed it together inside out. Turn it right side out and use some rivets to reattach the liner (corrugated plastic).

Pouch looks very much like one in photo. No tags or labels on it - looks handmade, but nice quality. I like the mounting straps...they look like helmet chin straps.
