I currently use a ski-doo riser bag, it sits over the bar pad and has enough room for gps, camera some tools and a pair of goggles if I really want to fill it up.

I was wondering what else people use. I am not concerned if you don't like riser bags either. I have seen a ski-doo dash/console bag, but it doesn't hold much.

TAG has this model but it looks huge!

I wear a pack, not looking for a tunnel bag. Its just nice to have some items quickly accessible.

Had a handlebar bag by sno bunje on my old rev. Think I still have it actually, but it was really big and cumbersome.

Friend of mine got it last year and it works good and I had to look twice to see it was on the sled. Gas cap is clear. And I'm like you I dont like the tunnel bag option. The stuff in this thing doesnt get beat up like on the tail of the sled. I have a Mountain mod bag tunnel bag and have to be careful what I put in it, if the trail is rough everything in there gets beat to $h T. I dont use it anymore.(I put a extra gas can now on the DEEP days:d) When you look at bags/seats etc with storage this seems the cheaper per volume then anything I've seen.

I have the doo riser as well and the dash bag, happy with the heated riser bag. As for the dash bag, the only thing I get in there is a cloth to wipe my goggles. I had to put an extra velcro strip on the front of it, because when I take my windshield off at the shack, it would flop around and fall off.

Might take a beating here in the site, but anyways, picked this one up at MEC years ago, in the mtn bike section. Velcros on and works great, not to mention it's dirt cheap...could actually get two strapped to the bars if you wanted..

I was thinking of picking up that heated riser bag too, how warm does it get?

warm enough to keep the camera/gps batteries warm but not much hotter. Not a lot of room for much more than a small camera.

AC has a nice riser bag; more room than the Doo one and I would rather buy an AC one than a MEC one no matter what the price was!!!! friggin' tree huggers......

I won't comment on mec but its funny so many people promote those habervision goggles and they support all those tree hugging organizations and no one complains about that.

I'll have to see what rider storage options I can find at the show

sent from my HTC phone cause I have nothing better to do

Have you used this flabbajabba?

Riding partner bought it last year and loves it! I rode his sled with it on and didn't even notice it. I think its good. I have the doo heated riser bag and can fit six "pop" cans and my plate in the front part and my go pro batterys and a snack in the heated part. I have a habit of letting him buy a whole bunch of stuff and trying all the "new things" and then I end up copying the things that work on my sled! I've been taking a little heat lately about being a copy cat so I was holding off on buying it for me. (but I have looked at it about a million times in the catalog:d and if one follows me home from the show:rolleyes:shouldnt be my fault)

takethebounce not trying to get your thread off topic if your looking for storage for goggles this thing works awesome took me a while to find a good spot but I can put a fogged up covered in snow wet/frozen pair of goggles in it and in half an hour(of riding) they are dry if anyone wants I get get a pic of where I put it. It sits above the motor mesh side down and you get the goggles in or out from opening the can side panel.

I have an SOS riser bag holds 2 water bottles and has room for a bunch of other stuff in 2 compartments.

X2 on the SOS bag. I love mine and if you have any problems with it the warranty is awesome. I had a seam come apart a little after 2 seasons and they replaced it with no hassles.

X3 on the SOS bag... Great Product and can take a beating holding lots of stuff.

I have seen those before and always say I will buy one when I see one, but no one carries them and I hate to order something that is under $15.00 and have them charge me more than what the item is worth for shipping.
