I have a new srx and the bag that comes with it behind the seat is pretty small. I am looking to see what else you guys have done for additional storage. I usually try to have an extra sweat shirt, gloves, wind shear deflectors and the basic tools. I know yamaha sells bigger bags of the same type just want to see if there are better options out there. Pics would be great thanks

Hey RTXviper
I went with Saddle bags because I too carry lots of gear like you!
I Carry in saddlebags the following:
2 shovels, emergency kit, tow rope,bungees, ice (fresh water when melted), lots of tools, extra clothing, extra waterproof wear, tent, blankets, sleeping bag, nicnacs, and some hunting gear in case #*$&@ goes real bad on trail.
I ride semi- aggressive and saddle bags never bother my riding position, it’s always very well balanced and well made.

Also I place belt in small storage behind the seat
Lots of room in saddle bags as well for many belts lol
Hope this helps

LinQ is king, so slick, removable instantly and safe.
I even fit mine on with stock bag on a 129.

Used those saddle bags when touring Quebec. They hold a lot, durable,mostly waterproof. Excellent choice for any winder/viper.
