Saddle Bag Idea!

I saw something interesting on a bike this week. Unfortunately I did not have a camera with me.

This guy had a 125, Yamaha.

He took two back packs and sewed (?) them together at the top back. But he inserted a piece of material too get some distance between the two bags.

He then hung these bags with his groceries over the fueltank.

So, they functioned very much like saddle bags.

Hope you could understand what Im trying to say!
