Default Messenger bag

I am looking for ideas on a messenger bag. Does any one have a picture of a bike with one on it so I can have one made in tan to match my seat? If so I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Marsh

A messenger bag goes over your shoulder as far as I know. (former messenger)

Last fall HD / Buell dealers handed out free buell messenger bags if you test drove a Buell. Rode the crap out of the Buell and took home the bag. Goes over the shoulder.

Yes, messenger bags go over the shoulder. I have seen some neat leather bags that only a single one mounts on one side of the bike and it is thin in design like a messenger bag. (looks like one saddle bag off a horse!) In tan leather to match your seat that would be a cool set up. Good luck in your search.

I have a few left from the old days when I was doing motorcycle messenger work in NYC. That was back before the FAX machine put a huge damper on the whole thing. If you need one just pay me the shipping. They aint clean or new looking or anything though. I think I have tools in one of them right now.....been using it for a "grab and run" tool bag for years.

Sounds like a purse or a manbag (aka Sienfeld) to me!

Last year a guy had a picture of a FatBoy with a bag on one side of his bike and it was said to be a Messenger Bag. I believe he was in the service in Europe somewhere and he had it made somewhere over there. Thats what I'm looking for

I forgot about the search function so I did one. Found out a lot of guys are interested in getting one but there is a lot of info to weed through.
