Default Smallish Day Bags

Hi Folks! I've just bought a 2017 SV650 and am currently trying to figure out the best way to carry stuff daily as this is my main form of transport. I don't need touring gear, just a couple of bags for a few tools and bits and bobs and another for a 13mm chain and lock. What's everyone found that works?

Cool, I'll take a look at that one. I'm thinking small side bags at the moment, maybe something like the Motech Blaze. I'm coming from a Harley which had several leather bags.

Yeah, as in "fix the bike" tools.

Think I've just found what I'm after. The GIVI UT807. It's a 25L tail bag and looks like it should just about hold what I need. Have ordered one and will give it a go. Will report back if it works.

your better with a topbox.

modern bikes are fairly reliable but when do break they are nigglymare to fix at side of road as its usually electrical. better off paying for some form of breakdown cover.
