T-Bar Bag for about $15.00
Item 1. Klein Electric Tool pouch part# 69401. I picked it up at my local Platt Electric for $6.81 out the door.
Item 2. Double sided Velcro. I purchased 1 yard at my local Joanns fabric for about $3.00. (You might want to send your girlfriend since you will be the only guy there.)
I removed the Klein patch off of the front of the bag and sewed the double sided Velcro with the soft side against the handlebars. I'm thinking of sawing on maybe a Harley Davidson patch's or something since you can see the impression from the tool patch. All said and done I'm happy with it. It's a great spot for sunglasses, gloves, and phone charger. I left the belt strap on it so if I'm out I can hook it on my belt and not worry about it getting stolen of the bike. (I did have my gas cap stolen at Street Vibrations this last September so I'm extra cautious. $78 bucks for a new one.)

Battery box bag
I've been running around with a bar bag, but wasn't too big on it being there. Also didn't like the idea of it being secured by Velcro and that anybody could steal it.
After looking at different photos, I decided to relocate and secure it to the battery box cover.
I drilled four 1/4" holes into the cover and then the bag. Pushed 3/4" length bolts through the back of the cover and through the bag. Then used acorn nuts inside the bag so I wouldn't scrap my hands when reaching in.
I don't have many photos, but could take some if people are interested.

For anyone interested, this is apparently the Harley specific oil filter relocation kit from Summit Racing, that I assume Fxdli has on his ride, and under 50 beans as well!!
