I installed two of those document tubes onto my NC700X using homemade brackets attached to my SW-Moto side bag mounts. What I didn't want to do is drill new holes into those mounts so I used existing holes or existing bolts. One tube holds my tools nicely and the other has a 30 oz canister of extra fuel. With the bags mounted, the tubes are not visible and can only be seen from the rear.
These photos were taken towards the end of the project so the bolts/nuts were only temporary. At the rear, they were replaced with panhead allen bolts that clear the inside edge of my Givi Trekker bags. At the front I used a longer countersunk head allen to provide enough thread for the new bracket. That bolt holds the conical lug into which the bags are secured at the bottom.
