I am looking forward to being a Vendor at this years InZane in Taos, NM.

I will be selling DayMaker LED Headlights, Brackets, and something new that I have been working on.

If you have a Tourer with a factory, or oversized Clearview windshield I am looking for your opinions on the Windshield Bags that I will also be selling. Please take a look at the pictures, and let me know what you think.

FYI - I made these for myself because I wanted a handy windshield pouch, but the Vent in my Clearview wouldn't allow for a conventional pouch.

Those look very nice  cooldude  I have the triple pouch on my windshield now, and the one drawback, is that the two outside pouches partially obscure the tach and speedo...  I've gotten used to it, so no big deal  Wink

Depending on price, you look like you have a winner there  cooldude cooldude

         While I am on a I/S I found a triple pouch for her and it partially blocks the W/S vent. NOT a deal breaker. Ross-da prez-fabbed up a bracket for it that attaches with the W/S bolts. What I are STILL tryin to figure out is HOW did I git along with out one fer so cursed long?  Lips Sealed Your idea seems like a good un!  cooldude RIDE SAFE.

Better to be judged by 12, then carried by 6.

Are they easily accessible while riding? They look low.

Yes they are easily accessible while on the road.

A typical windshield pouch would install at the horizontal support of the windshield frame which is the same height as the opening of my bags.

I like the concept and design. I think my preference would be a heavy waxed thread over the flat stitching. Is that an option?

It is. The bag on the left is a very rough, first round of prototypes bags I had made working my way up to the final product. Though it is not finished or stained it can give you the idea of what a double stitch looks like.

I'm taking orders for InZane if this further interests you.

Since you mentioned price.. What are your thoughts?

I'm probably showing how frugal I am, but $150 for a pair, would be in my ballpark...   ??? ???
