Default tank bags

Sorry about the "what's the best exhaust" type question, but I am looking for advice on a tank bag. I've been wearing a backpack, but mama and I are going to Laguna Seca (thanks Woody), and I don't wantto wear abackpack. I am looking ata Nelson-Rigg bag http://www.nelsonrigg.com/pages/Spor...SSC110-Big.htm

I'm looking for something sleek that has some capacity, too, for phone, glasses, a sweater...typical. I don't, however, want a grand piano sitting on the tank. What do you guys use, so I can do a little more research? Thanks.

You might want to check into something like this: http://www.nelsonrigg.com/pages/Spor...SSC150-Big.htmthere are "bags" that hang on each side...you can get them in all sizes, and there are even some with additional "bags". How about the Wife wearing a backpack as well? You're a very lucky man getting to go to Laguna, I'm jealous! I was suposed to go but have to play in a tournament that weekend sooo...When we go to the races, we always have my bud's fiance follow us up there in her car. That way we can load up a few coolers, pack chairs, tents, clothes, etc., because at Mid-Ohio (as I'm sure Laguna is probally more expensive) but if you want a beer<$6.00/small, an ol' fashioned ham and cheese<$8.00/w/chips...it can get expensive if you buy beverages/food at the track. Anyways, hope you guys have fun, take some pics for us!

I used to use a Joe Rocket Manta tank bag on the F4i. It was magentic and held on really nice. It's small, out of the way, but can still hold a surprising amount of stuff. I think they go for $35 and come with a shoulder strap if you want to take it with you and also a rain fly cover.
I could fit: 20 oz soda, my big bulky camera, cell phone, wallet, maps, disc lock, dial type tire guageand some other crap all at once.
