Thanks everyone for the comments, and welcomes!
I agree that it seems the norm that the majority of people use the system cases. It is hard to find a goo deal on them though, I keep finding sets with the exhaust cutout for the GS models. That is why I wanted to see what other people were using.
I was looking into Chicane and Cortex tank bags. The Cortex size was the smallest but the Chicane bags are nice. I just don't want the bag to overwhelm the tank and be in the way, I am just looking for a smaller bag that I can fit some Misc stuff in it.
I also forgot to ask what you guys clean the "header" pipes with?
By the way here is a picture of the new addition!!
