Default Tunnel Seat Bag

Has anybody used one of these before? looking to add some storage for long rides but do not want to put saddle bags on my bike. this looks easy to install and remove, does not ruin the look of the bike when on, plus it is 2220 cubic inches of storage and includes a free rain bag.

I like the look of the tunnel bag. It may not be as useful as some of the larger roll bags, but it looks like it carries a lot, keeping a lower profile. And at a pretty good price.

Use Tbags and saddle bags on the back.

Use a tank bag up front and you will have plenty of room.

I love my tank bag and won't do a long run without it. Everything I need right up front with me.

My thoughts exactly

I dont want to put saddle bags on because I feel it runs the low slim look of the newer wide glides which is why I am looking at seat bags. I am hoping somebody that has one can comment on how well the mount, and want to make sure they don't scratch the fender paint

I use the T-bags Falcon bag on my '03 wide glide, with the "top" bag. I strap my bedroll and a tarp, plus jacket(if I'm not wearing it) between the two and my rain gear. I think they renamed it the Raven bag recently. It is a lot like the tunnel bag you are looking at except it is not rigid. The specs say it is 1.3 CF plus .3 for the top bag. This is all I use for all my trips as I like to keep it real light and don't mind using a laundromat (usually at a hotel) every couple of days to keep things fresh. I find that by keep things to a minimal I carry only what I need and still keep the bike looking slim and trim

I have the exact one but only use it on longer rides.
Looks good and great storage.The external rings are good for adding straps and nets and such.
I mount it on the HD solo luggage rack.
Best to use protection for your fender. I had small rubbing.

So, would this fit a couple pair of jeans, couple of shirts, half dozen socks and underware? Plus a pair of shoes and maybe a book and shaving kit? If so, that's what I'm looking for!

I personally try to keep it light when I pack, 1 pair of jeans (plus the one I'm wearing), 3 shirts, 4 pair underwear, 4 pair socks, swim trunks, plus personal items
