Those bags look nice. Can they handle carrying a pound or two and do they have straps?
You wouldn't have a link or model number?
Thanks

I always bounce the bike a bit to activate the ARH to lower the bike, which then makes it easy to lean to the right and lift the stand.

That is why I will put it up for sale when I get home... it will work for someone. but for me, standing 5'5" with a 29" inseam it just isn't right.

. this is where I got the idea .

9 x4.5x 2.5 Molle Pouch (2 Pack)

Amazon

they have 4 or 5 straps that you run around one bar then through the molle loops and snap them
Then I added these to further secure them. I probably have a couple of # in each

I’m going to look into those too. Hate not always carrying a pump and repair kit. Seems like a good place, although it’s hard to think of my air pump as being sacrifial it is cheaper than new bars.

Which model oiler did you use?
Stock horn is useless! I used a Denali SoundBlaster that mounts the same as the stock horn.
