hmm

check craigslist for bmw hardbags, some of them are small enough to not look out of place on a gs500. hardbags are PRICEY, but i've come across a few pair for <$100 well used.

if you find a set that has keyed locks, working hinges and aren't full of holes for $100, BUY THEM.

decent hard bags start around $600 and just keep going. you could likely weld up aluminum crash bags like those uber cool bmw trekkers have for $200 or less. allot of work , but tough as hell.

good luck !
