Tool Kit storage on a FB

I have a 2004 Fatboy and I was wondering if there was any where on the bike one could safely store a tool kit other than puttingin a saddle bag.

I ride without any bags and was thinking why would there not be a compartment somewhere for the basics?

thx

Get a toolbag. there really isn't a place on the bike as it comes. I found this strange too when I got my fatboy.

I don't think it's strange that it doesn't have a glove compartment, but then again i've never had a metric bike. [&:] Like Anubisss said, get a fork bag. Check out the Willie & Max stuff, I like it.

I fitted the HD tool box - part number 64983-07 on mine, problem solved. I bought the liner as well - On a fatty though you can only fit the left side as the shotgun pipes prevent the right one being fitted as a pair. Snap-On do a good toolkit that fits inside.

I put sunnies, disc lock, phone etc in mine, the lock is dummied to accept your ignition key (or anyones elses including a most vending machine keys)

I added a small bag that mounts behind my license plate. It is small enough to not stand out so bad but big enough to hold some sunnies and a set of allen's.
