Rear fender tool bags

Hi all

Just wondering what everyone is throwing their tools in these days
I have a WR250f and didn't really want to go down the line of using a waist belt bag,

Really like the idea of the rear fender bag and have been looking at a few

The kriega US5

Or the wolfman enduro tool bag

http://www.wolfmanluggage.com/Enduro..._tool_bag.html


I looked at these sets so I could expand in the future for weekend camping and day tripping

Just thought it would be good to see what people have to say

Thanks

Have you considered a rack to mount a bag to?

I am currently using a Pelican 1170 box mounted directly atop the fender in place of the OEM toolbag on my 2009 KLX 250S. It's just as low profile as the bag when full, but more than twice the capacity. It's big enough to hold a comprehensive tool kit including a hand pump and spare 21" tube. Fully waterproof, and lockable if need be.

Got to admit I like the kreiga as it has the rip out inner and it seems to have a lower profile than the wolfman tool bag.
Also if I want to get a bigger system the kriega does the over lander kits that have better capacity (15litres) as a soft pannier and seeing how I'm only running a 250 at the moment It should fit until I get a bigger capacity bike

Hmmmm decisions decisions

I like the Wolfman a lot. Mine is mounted on the headlight cowl though:



Since the mounting plate has exposed Velcro that I don't want to get dirty as it would reduce its adhesion, I made this little cover from an old bleach-bottle to protect the Velcro when the bags isn't on the bike:

Wolfman is great - have a couple.


I got one of these (below) for the first time, bolted it right to my rear fender and its been awesome. I know a couple guys using them as well.
