JR Manta style or something similar. It doesn't have to be a Manta but I like that small size for work and such because it's easy to carry and holds the few small things I take with me just fine. I have a regular size Nelson Rigg but my Manta bag has seen it's better days and I'd like to replace it. I've been looking on ebay and on newenough but I thought I might check with the TWFix peeps and see if anyone has a bag they want to part with.... tank bag that is :whistle:

I just sold a Manta bag about a month ago.

Here's what I got for the chrome bikes...
Works good. Take it to work all the time. I just wish it had a grab handle for easier carry.
I picked up a normal, non-map pocket, version at a dealership. It fit the sporty and chop very well. But I found the map pocket version on Ebay for even cheaper than the non-map pocket version. $34.90 to your door on the buy it now. (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MOTORCYLE-RALLY-PACK-CRUISER-TANK-BAG-NEW_W0QQitemZ250137249612QQihZ015QQcategoryZ6755QQ rdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)
It fits really well, 6 strong magnets holding it to the bike (and a salesman used one on his ridgeback and must have had 10lbs in it), a VERY soft neoprene bottom so it won't scratch the bike (again told to me by the saleman who had his there on his desk), and a nice carry handle.
And as you can see if sure beats a back pack or luggage rack for carring a hand full of items. I tried to put a few things in it to show its size.
Non-map pocket model (same size and shows how it even fits the small 3.3gal sporty tank)

Yep that's about the size give or take, just not all that extra magnet since it'll fit just nicely on my tank like the manta does.

Thank you OSP.
I hear that Pickle.. but I only use it when working or needing to take my camera on a ride. It beats the backpack.

anything important goes in my tank bag or my INSIDE pocket of my jacket. my A* pants have cargo pockets that I keep my phone and wallet in (one each side) they're velcro... works fine for me when I don't have my tank bag...
