Last May when I did a weekend trip to Cedar Key, I ended up carrying a lot of stuff in a backpack, because my tank bag and tail bag didn't quite hold everything I wanted to bring. Well that was kind of pain and took a little of the enjoyment out of the trip. So since then I have been looking for some smallish saddlebags to make weekend trips easier.
Newenough had these
Nelson Rigg mini saddlebags on sale for $69, so I picked them up.
In typical Newenough style, they arrived almost before I could close the browser from ordering them. Upon trying them on for size however, I realized that while they could strap to the tag bracket in the back, I had nothing to secure them to in the front. I removed my passenger pegs long ago.
I dragged the passenger pegs back out and my husband spray painted them black so they wouldn't stand out like a sore thumb against the rest of the bike
Two coats of paint and one of clear later, we remounted them, and the bags could then be strapped down
