$17 Tankbag Into a Tailbag!
Well I ordered a clearance tankbag fom New Enough for $17.
http://www.newenoughhp.com/closeouts..._tank_bag.html It was a stap down and looked like ass on the bike, hmmm what to do? I know, I'll make it into a tailbag!  Plugged in my soldering iron and cut the straps shorter and burned in mounting holes. Then I bolted them to the passenger seat. I adjusted the other strap to the correct length to wrap around the tail and ta dah!!!

Good job.
 The bike looks like a TLR now.

That's awesome.
I can't find a tailbag I like. I need to become more MacGyver-esque with this stuff! |

Have you seen the one that is a passenger seat cover and expands into a bag? http://www.xtsportbikeaccessories.com/FastPack.html |

 What's that?  That one looks cool but I think I'd need something just a bit bigger. more along the lines of the one you MacGyvered. I'm looking for something to replace a backpack for when I go on weekend trips. |
