Default Roll bags

Need some advice, I am wanting to get a travel bag to put on my Bob. I have detachable saddlebags but do not want to leave them on my bike all the time. I have found that when I have them on my bike they pull a lot of wind, and cause a lot of buffing on road trips. I like the looks of a round bag. Does any one have this type bag on there bike and which brand is the best and a reasonable price and guarantte.

I have the kuryakyn grand roll bag....fits great, but the zippered opening kinda creates a "lip". The flap to open the bag has a shell, but when I zip the unit, it kinda of squashes a bit. Also on a bob, it just clears the turn signals on stock apes. It has expandable sides that will cover the signal lights if used. pic to follow...

I'd recommend the Kuryakyn Model 4144 "Classic Touring Bag." High quality, holds plenty and should last forever. Best price is at Eastern Performance Cycles in Gambrills, Maryland. About $106.00- Their website is: http://www.easternperformance.com/

I've tried some of the cheaper ones but none of them compare to my Biker's Friend. I use that thing all the time and it makes a great back rest.
