I'm looking for a solution where I can take a small bag for weekend trips. I dont want to attach something permanent so something removable would be the best solution.

Has anyone tried this: (or anything similar?)

Suggestions for a sharp looking, durable but not expensive bag?

 

dude, I have not owened one, but I have the nightster and I want a bikers friend bag so bad, just can not afford one right now. good choice!!

 

I tried a Phantom Pad on my 2005 883L and it was too wide for the fender - It partially overhung and some of the suction cups wouldn't stay secured. Sent it back and went with a fender bib and short rail. If you want to occassionaly carry a small bag on longer trips, consider an inexpensive passenger seat - easy on and easy off.
