I had this black bicycle bag laying around. Dimensions are 8" long and 4" diameter with a lengthwise zipper. Easily holds a tire plugging kit with room to spare. Has velcro straps that attach to the rear luggage rack right behind the base of the triple tail. Sits just on and forward of the rear light. Can't see it unless you know it's there. I'd have a photo but the battery needs charging and I need to get a new charger. Here is a similar bag:

The dimensions of the roll bag I used just by luck fits that space perfectly. I forgot to add that the Journey tourpak is also there and the roll bag fills the space below it. The bag I used has 100 cubic inches of space. That is 8" x 3.14159 x 4 = 100 cubic inches. I'm trying to get my camera charged.

Gambito, Way to big for what we're talking about. And $179? There's a guy on adv who will make you one for around $15.00

Maybe That's the route I should go.

I used this for a long time. Sits well on the tail when it's flipped back. Expands for a helmet or a six pack.

On sale at Cycle Gear for 49.99

EG, I would love that picture.

It's not a "tail bag", doesn't sit on the seat.

Whisperstealth,
I found a battery for the camera that has some power in it.
It is an Ingear bag, but I cannot find one on the web. Have no idea where it came from but it fits that space perfectly. 8" by 4"
With the triple tail up it is hidden pretty well from thieves. It made it to Homecoming and back with no problema. The triple tail clip shuts but I had it hanging during these photos. Wish I could give more info on this particular bag because I'd get another for my son's ULY. It's a nicely made roll bag. The round ends have something hard under the cordura to keep a barrel shape. UPC code on inside tag is 89944 19242 and it is made in Thailand.
