You should also consider reducing the number of things you need to carry.

Your decision, but think about this: I've read several threads here on the forum about tool bags mounted below headlights that dented the front fender when the bike bottomed out. I'm one of those people...it cost me a bunch of money to fix the dent and I'd never mount anything there again and always caution others about doing the same.

Good luck.
