I have to ride with syringes and medication. That, my wallet, house keys, cell phone etc- I throw all that in a small nylon shoulder bag (that I must carry due to my meds). The nylon bag goes in my saddle bag.. Piece of cake.. Its not a Murse. The bag is a Vette accessory for the same reasons... ce

I have 2 nylon bags that tuck between the windshield & the bars.

The 1st is a black camera bag with a strap that wraps around the risers. It carries basic tools, keys, registration, ear plugs....

When I'm riding far, a rectangular bag I found in walmart's fishing isle nestles in there with extra glasses, maps, weed & the litttle black bag.

I just picked on up for my Ultra the HD one with the magnets on the flaps. Just gives a good place to toss the ID getting on & off base plus the garage door remote.

I wish I would of done it sooner.

As others have said, a windshield bag is a great addition to a Heritage (including mine). One thing I would add...DO NOT get a cheap one...I did that the first time and my black bag turned brown plus the leather turned rigid. I went with a better bag the second go 'round and it has been excellent for the past three years.

Only blocks the view of the front of your headlight. (at least where it's mounted on my Road King)

Great place for my Android, wallet, glasses/sunglasses

Love mine. Very handy. Took a while for me to get one, now I wonder why I waited so long.
