MY 2006 Bullet has 2 aluminium, home made panneirs fitted, which whilst looking quite 'cool' stick out a long way whilst parked in the garage. hence I'm thinking of taking them off, but still need somewhere to stash my lunch etc. I have thought about a canvas type pannier, but wondered if anyone has bought / made a rear carrier rack that is smaller and neater then the HUGE ones that I have seen on the web, in real life etc?

If its only lunch have you tried a tanktop bag?

Do, nt know about aldi uk but here in aust they do a nice 2 part tank bag about 22 quid your money works very well and quite waterproof for your english summers ha ha. Can be carried or used like a backpack neat.

Yep, I've had one of those Lidl tank bags for the last five years. Great piece of kit. I also use a shoulder bag (for want of a better description) which I got from an army surplus store for eight quid.

Found the Dell bags on eBay. Tenner seems to be the going rate. Reckon they'd look pretty smart on a black bullet.
