Default Tank Bags?

Can anyone recommend a tank bag that can be used, without blocking the instruments on the tank? The wife and I are planning a trip to the Grand Canyon for this summer, and the old tank bag I used on my V45 Magna, won't do the trick. Any suggestions? Thanks...

I used to always have a tank bag on my other bikes, in fact it was like a purse to a woman, but now that I have a Harley with tank molunted speedo and stuff, I don't have a tank bag anymore. I have had tank bags made by chase harper, eclipse, marsee, and a few others. The last one I had was magnetic and flew off of my bike onthe freeway. I think that was when I decided no more tank bags. Check out newenough.com They have a bunch for good prices as well...
