[playtowinthegame]

i drive an 01 yzf600. im looking for something to put my money, keys, pen etc. in. do they make something that hangs right below the instrument cluster, about the size of a zip lock bag?? or is there i handy way of doing it from something else?

tank bag or do you not have storage under the seats you could put it in?

get a tank bag... if you got a exposed metal tank, you can get a small magnetic one thats real easy to take with you, if you got a plastic cover over the tank, you got to get a strap one that's a little more troublesome.

There is also tailbags and backpacks to consider. You could also rig a permanant tube or storage space attached to the bike somewhere. Tank bag is the easiest and cheap option though.

Just something KLR riders do around here, they rig PVC pipes that they can cap to store stuff usually hidden from view. Just an quick and dirty storage system that's real cheap.

That's a tractor manual holding tube, as seen here:

Funny story. One dude on ADV bought some, and told everybody how bitchin' they were. All of sudden Agrisupply sells a kazillion of them, and adds this to the description:

"Can also be used as small tool holder for motorcycles and bicycles"

I have two on the KTM.

Not sure I'd put one on a sport bike, unless I was going for the Batman look.
