I'm using a set of Cortech saddle bags and duffle which all snap together. RKA would also be a nice choice. Only problem I have is tht my M2L has the American Sport Bike CF undertail and the rear turnsignals are now flush mounts in that piece. I had to fabricate a u shaped bracket that I bolt to the American Sport Bike license frame to keep the bags off of the rear wheel. First time I used the bags without this bracket I got some friction damage to the bottom edge of the tail section. I have three different tank bags and two of them are so tall I can't see the gauges and dash. Also a PITA when fueling up.

Safe ride,

I read back a bit but Blast bags could work with the M2.

I found this seller for Moto Pak on eBay. Whole line of items, but i chose the one tank bag that looked to fit. Expands, has the map window on top and three small zippered pockets on the sides. Fairly cheap. Only thing is that when I have a lot of stuff in there it tends to move side to side in the curves which is a pain. I think it's a 17 liter size.

Safe ride,
