Default Where to keep registration?

I'm just curious where you all keep your bike registration. I have a 2005 883 and there is not storage (that I know of) on the bike. I keep the registration in my jacket, but if I ever ride without the jacket I'll probably forget to bring it. What do you guys do?

Thanks

On my 05 XL1200C, I added the little leather tool bag under the headlight...it was big enough for the cell, docs and a few tools...JMO.

+1 Fork bags aren't ugly and consume the required documents...

Aside from a fork bag, Id like to add to keep them in a zip lock baggy within the fork or saddle bag for added protection from moister.

I mounted a fork bag to the back fender, enough room for that kind of thing plus smokes, gloves and one bottle of water.
Also a handy spot is behind the liner on your helmet.

On a Dyna, the panel on the left side pops off without tools. Put it in a zip lock baggy and put it in there with anything else you wish to stash.

I have always wondered why Harley can't do a compartment under the seat like Metric bikes do. That would be really helpful.
