Fender Bags

I have a TE250 and I'm looking for a medium sized bag that will attach to the bike, either on the fender or headlight assembly. Only needs to be big enough to carry a couple of water bottles, camera and a few tools. I used to have a bag that mounted to the headlight plastic on the WR but I don't remember where I bought it. I think senility is beginning to set in!
Thanks

there is a member over at the orangetalk site with a pretty good bargain....

I don't own anything from these guys yet - but it looks really well made:

I have a Chase Harper on the front of my WR, works well.

Wolfman makes a whole line of bags for dirt bikes, great stuff!

I recently put a Wolfman Enduro Toolkit bag on the rear fender of my TE510. Appears to be well made, neat mounting base, but I have no personal experince with it yet. Friends that have it really like it (& a gift certificate) convinced me to try it.

The bag I had been using and found very durable, is the Chase-Harper Universal Fender Bag.

I had a blue one on a XR350 for serveral years, then transfered the faded thing to a '94 DR350 for another 13 years. It was still holding up well enough that when I gave my old DR a make over in spring '06, I washed it, dyed black and bolted it back on.

Thanks for the suggestions, the Cycoactive was the one I was looking for.
This is a great site!

A friend of mine has one and once I saw it I had to have one too. I got the large rear fender bag and I love it! Plus the tool warp is great. This is top shelf stuff and costs a little more but is worth it.

Dirt-bike-gear gets my vote also. I have the medium rear bag and a front number plate bag. Ken

moose racing has a good selection, you can get them through parts unlimited. ive had one for a few years and its holding up well.

Ront Fender Bag - Weight?

I'm carrying two tubes and three Motion Pro aluminum tire tools in one of the Wolfman bags. I mounted it on the front fender of my 08 TE610, but it seems heavy so I carried on the rear rack.

However, I'd like to carry in on the front fender - anyone have experience with how much weight is too much to be supported by the front fender?

Just reviving this thread--if anyone has pictures of how they mounted the Wolfman enduro tool bag (the rear fender bolt-on one) I'd be super appreciative if they'd post 'em! The TE rear fender isn't as flat as the bikes shown on the Wolfman site, so I'm looking for ideas...

Thanks!

I centered the base on lengthwise along the rear fender, marked & drilled it, then bolted it down.....the velco attachemnt on the Wolfman hold well and the rear fender with the extra weight has been handling the abuse I can give it well.

I'll try to remember to get better pics of base plate mounting when I get home and post them

Cool, thanks. I suppose I'm just a tad paranoid before I start drilling holes

Added base photos above.......please forgive dirt on underside of fender

Well its a bag and I mount it on my fender. Super happy with them and the heat shieldis a plus. Zippers are a little too small, but I'm happy with the added rear knee support with huge long wheelies.

RLW--installed mine today, yippee! Thanks, your pictures really gave me much more confidence before taking the power drill to my fender. (Why I'm not afraid of opening up engines, but leery of messing up plastic, I will never know...)
