First thought, check with Lance at St Paul H-D. There may be a factory one left somewhere in the parts system.

Cortech makes some nice bags. If you use a strap mounting system, it shouldn't be too hard to modify the straps to fit. That's what I did for an X-1.

Others here have epoxied auto body washers to the inside of the airbox cover and used magnetic mount tank bags.

Hope this helps, Dave

That last idea sounds very cool.
Thanks!

I used a chase harper 450 bag and used some straps form the local craft store to make a set up like the original buell tank bag. You just poke holes on the strap and screw it on where the air box cover screws in. i had to sew two pieces together in a T to make one long section for the front.
