Default t-bags on a deuce

I am contemplating selling my saddle bags and going to a t-bag setup on my deuce. I don't love the looks of the saddlebags so I will be purchasing a quick detack bracket or switching to a t-bag. What are some good t-bags for the deuce. I want something that fits securely and that can hold about as much as the saddle bags would. I also think maybe a 2 piece bag would be ideal. Do they make a smaller bag that I can just mount to the luggage rack and keep on most the time. Something that looks fairly good. It would be nice to have some storage even on local rides incase you buy a sweatshirt or a 6 pack at the convenience store. Any ideas would be great. possibly pics of your setup and part number of your bags.
Thanks
Tom

I use the SAC bag made for the Deuce. Mine fits the smaller backrest and I can rest it on the chromerack or the passenger seat. I also have a set of leather throw-over saddle bags and a backpack that I can bunge on to the backrest. With all three of them I havemore than enough space to store a weeks worth of clothes and gear including tools. I found my SAC on Ebay picking it up for about one half the price of a new one. Just my setup for traveling. T-Bags would also be a nice to have. Check out their website and I would suggest calling them if you aren't sure how they will fit the deuce. They are the experts on their bags and what they will fit.
Pictures attached.

It never occurred to me to put the SAC bag over the seat. I have always installed it over the luggagae rack because mine has a pocket under the bag to slip over the rack and a secone pocket to slip over the back rest which makes for a secure bag.
