Default Fork Bag for 2018 48

Hello, has anyone put a tool bag on the front forks under the headlight and had problems with the motor running hot? It just appears a lot of wind goes through there hitting the engine and I wondered what other people's experience was.

Ride with a fork tool bag all the time on my Nightster. It doesn't cause any cooling issues.

I wouldn't worry about it restricting air flow. Personally, I don't like how it looks up there and mounted mine down low. Doesn't really get that dirty.
