Default Mini-saddlebag for 2015 sportster Iron?

I need a small bag for my break disc brake. Since I have passenger pegs, I cannot fit a saddle bag on my bike - and it wouldn't really fit the style of my bike.

I am not too fond of the bags that fit on the front of the bike even though the size is just about perfect.

Any suggestions for a mini-saddlebag? I am not too fond of the bags that fit on the front of the bike even though the sizeis just about perfect.

Thanks

Rex

I used a Harley fork bag on the back of my bike, may not work as well with a solo seat though, some people mount them on the swing arm too.

Thanks. I think that's exactly what I need.

Much appreciated.

i had the same problem, hated the small bag up front. and have passenger pegs so i couldn't get anything to bulky...picked up a small swing arm bag off ebay for cheap..off brand, but its smaller then some of the other bags, enough to keep a small tool kit, gloves and glasses, while still have enough room for my passenger to sit comfortably.

Plumderdogs? They go on each side. Not sure if they are made anymore though.

Licks makes nice swingarm bags for the Sportster, for both left and right sides. See http://www.lickscycles.com/mobile/Product.aspx?id=38997

You can run a swing arm bag and not interfere with the passenger pegs if you use some passenger peg extensions.

Even if you're not running a swing arm bag, the peg extensions can make it much more comfortable for the passenger.

See them HERE

DK Custom, is there any solution for extending the passenger pegs with the stock exhaust system?
