Default Storage on a Ultra Limited Low

Riders,
I just bought a 2015 Ultra Limited Low. It's a great bike and I'm loving to ride it, but there is no place to store sun glasses or the garage door opener or my notebook that I record all gasoline purchases. I don't want to buy the windshield bags because this model has the vent on top of the dash that's suppose to eliminate buffeting. I was wondering if anyone has come up with a solution.

If the 2 saddle bags and tour pack isn't enough, you could buy a bag/drink holder for the front saddle bag guard. $89.00 I believe

notebook: in a saddlebag or tourpak. when you need it, you are off the bike anyways.

Garage Door Opener: the DIY sticky above has 1000 posts on the GDO mounting it on the bike and activating with a flash of the highbeam, honk of the horn or added button

sunglasses: jacket pocket?

you can get the bags that mount on the rear crash bars- I use mine for water bottles, coffee cup

Tour pack organizer is another option, lid/wall or both.


Not sure if Mazz is trying to be funny or is there a difference on the lows? Not sure why the three bag pouch would interfere anymore or less then on the full size Ultras.

Doesn't Harley sell a fairing mounted windshield bag that does not interfere with the fairing vent? I thought they had came out with one for the '14 and up models.

If none of the suggestions provided previously seem to work for you, you might want to look into a cargo trailer.
