Question Nightster roll bag

Is there a decent-looking roll bag available for the Nightster? It would need to be able to mount to a luggage rack (Motherwell), and be easy to attach and remove. Thanks.

I use a T Bag Roll bag that has two quick release buckles and straps. I took off the back rest portion by carefully cutting the stitching that held it to the bag. Looks good and works well.

Thanks. Don't you need a backrest to hold the T-Bag on the bike? Which bag did you buy?

I bought this bag and it works great, just strap it down with the bungees it comes with and it comes with a rain cover

gseely, I don't see the model I have - when I bought it it was on close out. The T Bags Saddle Roll will work for you - this model:

The Saddle Roll bag has two quick release straps with buckles that you can use to attach the bag to the rack. My bag sits on the rack and the straps loop under the the shock by the upper bolt. Like I said I removed the back rest attachment part by removing the stitching used to sew it on.

This Kuryakyn bag would also work and in the pic you can see the straps I was talking about that you can loop onto your rack:
