Tank bag as a tail bag?

[dkaar]

I can't seem to find a Buell tail bag for an S anywhere so I have been looking around and have noticed some tank bags may be a great fit for the rear of our bikes as a tail bag. Case in hand:

Measuring 10" x 8" x 5" the Cortech Super Mini Bag


Measuring 11" x 9" x 3.75" the Ogio mini


Anyone ever try this...Better yet, anyone know where to get a Buell tank bag for our bikes?

Yeah looks like a good fit. I have an old Suzuki bag, no idea what it was originally meant for, but I put some grommets in it and put 2 bungee cords through it and now I can use it as a tail bag. Those bags would be even easier because they've got those plastic loops, you could just hook the bungees right to those.

I have a Chase Harper Hideaway Tail Trunk, that I have had for nearly 30 years. I have managed to find a place to stash it on nearly every bike I have ever owned. It currently resides in the small compartment beneath the passenger seat of my Firebolt, ready to unfold and use, when required.
