Have a look at the oxford range, they do all sorts of universal ones, many are magnetised to keep them in place.. they range from about £30 - £100+

They also do some throwover paniers for the rear of most sportsbikes..

Get some sort of clear adhesive vinyl to stick on your tank then your paintwork wont get scratched with the tankbag

If you can, try and put the tankbag on the bike before you buy it. I found on my triarm that the tankbag is in the way for tucking in.

You might be better off with a tailpack?
