Crash Bar Bags?
Anyone ever find bags to fit on the rear crash bar bags directly in front of the Nomad hard bags? I've seen HD version that holds a water bottle but it won't fit ours. I've installed a small windshield size tool bag on my right side to hold a cell phone, but i'd like something a little larger to hold a bang-bang. I'm thinking something similar to the Sagebrush guards with pockets, just designed for the rear crash bars.
Anyone?

I have these and am very happy with them http://home.insightbb.com/~kpmh.010/N-Saddlebag-Guard-Bags.htm PS. Well, s**t, I should have checked their web site before posting. Looks like they are no longer in business. Bummer. |

PH Customs do make bag chaps with an optional pocket on the front side of the bag (but I doubt it's big enough for your bang bang). But that is not really what you are looking for.
I know I've seen a few things before. Have you checked Gadget's site? There may be something on there.

Yep, not the prettiest things on earth that's for sure!
They might make good trampolines for road debris heading towards the front of the bags though. 8) Skeeter

Just looking for a way to transport "concealed" but more readily available then keeping it in the saddlebag. If you need it, you'll need it quickly.

I wasn't thinking about concealment when I bought a set of these without pockets. Think I'll try adding some pockets and see how they work out for concealment. One thing about the chaps, keep sufficient clearance between them and the bags or they WILL rub the paint off. Don't ask how I know! 8( They were bought originally to help with the bug swarms around here during the evening in Spring. (can be really really bad) Bug problem was eliminated when I installing hard lowers and now those flying critters stay off my legs to. Skeeter
