Default Tank Bag idea wanted

I have a 04 FLHTCI and interested in a tank bag for map pages... Yes, I use a GPS but I am of the old school,,, I like to see a REAL map also...

Has anyone found a usable tank bag for our EG's??

I am NOT talking about those big high bags,,, Just one that will hold a map page and Nothing else..

Thanks,,,

Marsee makes a small bag that has a channel for the console on Harleys. It's just big enough for a map, cellphone, etc. Might take a look at that.

I have a Kuryakyn tank bag that I attach to the luggage rack behind my solo seat. It makes a nice day bag. It has magnets, straps and retaining rings so it can be attached in a variety of ways. I think it cost around $100.

I use a Marsee cruiser bag on a home made leather base (to raise it above the centre console). See the HD tank bag at http://www.racerpartswholesale.com:8...gs2/?r=lmarsee By the way i made my base before Marsee came up with their bag

Check out the dirt bike tank bags. They're short so they fit nicely between the seat and the ignition switch. I installed an electrification kit bought from www.easternbeaver.com so I can power my heated jacket and charge my cell phone while on a long ride.
