5 Minimalist Saddlebags for Ultralight Packers
A toothbrush, flip-flops and spare pair of underwear are all you really need.
4. Wolfman E-12 22 Liter Saddlebags ($150)
The Wolfman E-12 Saddle Bags are the same width and height as the Wolfman Daytrippers, but the depth of the bags is increased by 3 1/2 inches (9 cm). The additional depth provides an extra 10 liters of volume. Like the Daytrippers, the E-12 saddlebags utilize a rackless mounting system that makes it easy to install or remove the bags quickly on nearly any Dual Sport motorcycle. These versatile saddlebags include 8 D-rings attachments that allow you to strap on additional luggage securely. The E-12 Saddlebags are made of highly durable 1680 denier ballistic fabric with a non-scratch surface on the bike side and heavy-duty zippers. However, these bags are not waterproof.

I use a soft rack kit from Green Chile Adventure Gear. Its tough and lightweight and you can carry pretty much any bag so you can go minimalist or pack for a multiday camping trip easily.
I have also found that other brand bags like my Wolfman Expedition saddlebags actually haul better when I attach it to my Green Chile rack.

http://www.viaterra.in/ makes some great softluggage systems. The 35L ‘claw mini’ is a universal fit on anybike and ‘rapide’ for upswept exhausts.
Mosko Moto has some great stuff too, really love my “Reckless 80” rackless bags. The beaver-tail is bad-ass for hauling firewood, beer, you name it.

Being exceedingly cheap, I just pick up a set of $20 doggy saddle bags at the pet store. Usually run the straps under the seat.

VUZ makes a line of quality durable dry bags which are a great value. I love my Wolfman gear but there are much less costly choices out there.
