    you're dealing with a couple of issues: the 2-piece front fender, though stronger than normal, has the headlight in the valley- which blocks the light if you get too much crap in the bag. On the rear fender, you need clearance for access to the gas cap (but the rear fender is semi-hollow if you wanna get really tricky). OTHO- this leaves the front of the seat free; letting a "tank" bag be an option also, that most normal dirt bikes can't use too easily.

    consider also a number plate bag- it could be useful.

    choices.

    Thanks for that TC
    I like the look of the rear rack, I think that would work well for what i carry

    I carry my tools in my Zac Speed backpack.
    A great quality pack that has enough room for me as 'trail mechanic' on our group rides.
    We spread out bulky items like tubes etc among the riders in the group.
    That frees up each rider a bit, instead of everyone carry the same extra gear themselves.
