I've been keeping them in my iPhone case. My case has credit card holder slots on the inside (it flips open).
Although, I hate having the phone, wallet and/or keys in my pockets when I ride. My Deluxe has no saddle bags (yet), so I have been wearing a backpack on all my long rides. I end up putting everything in the backpack.
Also, I ordered a nice rebel leather jacket from Fox Creek Leather. It's arriving tomorrow. I'll probably wear it whenever I ride, so the phone/case/registration/insurance will end up in a pocket on the jacket.
So, sitting in the shop with a cold PBR today, I came up with this idea. It fits the criteria of stealthy and easy to get to while on the bike...
Here is my "uncircumcised" FatBoy seat...
Fold back the extra flap of skin and there is another "hidden" side of leather. Using contact cement I attached a piece of female Velcro...
Using the vinyl motorcycle document envelope that was under the seat, it sticks with the male Velcro sewn into the back...
Completely hidden from view! It is actually attached in the first picture. Cost = free. I'm still researching the other options as I want to upgrade seats soon.
^^^ Yes but this doesn't fit your criteria as you have to get your butt off the seat to use this!
LOL just kidding, this is a pretty clever solution indeed.
LOL, actually I can get it pretty easily while in the saddle! I tried it. Putting it back is another story so I'll just pocket it until I get off the bike.
