Well, theyz gonna git wet, if'n it's rainin'. DOH!!!

Have had several hangin' there over the years. Jus' use a wide glide bag. Would have one on the chop, but it has the front pipe outside the frame, so no go.
One on the 78, but no pic.

My fork bag used to reside above the headlight, on the girder. But I carry my leathers and stuff up there. So moved it for easier access when I git where I'm going.

I put mine up high so my pistol and bearings/marbles are easy to grab. J/K.http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o...Picture104.jpg

If you're going to get a fork bag, go all out. I just bought one of these from member jrk5892. It's a stereo mounted in the bag.

I keep my tools in this.
I hate damp rusty tools.

This is where I keep mine when I have the sissybar on. I put it on just for this picture, just now. Held on by 2 heavy duty zipties.

the tools will have to be in a plastic container inside the bag or they will get wet and rust....this coming from experience. I thought I had sufficently waterproofed the bag...yeah right....not for the rains we get up here.

Have an HD fork bag I got off ebay for like 30.00 shipped Has horizontal straps that I put around the forks, just above the lower triple. Keeps it well off the fender. Have the tools in roll up pouches I got at sears. Keeps them relatively dry. Have a windshield bag also, but that is foe glasses/sunglasses, snacks, gloves, anything that needs to be handy. I will get pictures, honest
