Experience with sling bag for EDC on motorcycle (self.motorcycles)

Hey everyone, I'm looking for some insights of my fellow riders. I'm starting to carry more tactile stuff with me, pens, paper, a calendar, a small driver kit, some small tools, etc. For this I want to start carrying a bag. I like the flexibility of a sling/messenger bag, but I'm looking for experiences with them on a bike.

Are they comfortable for commute driving (<45 minutes)?
How is quick access?
Do you use it outside of riding as well? I'd like it to be somewhat nice looking so I could carry it while walking / at music festivals for instance.
Any extra information or recommendations are definitely welcome!

I'd love to hear your insights!

Thanks for the insights!

No guns here, we live in Europe 😂

I was asking more because it will also be the bag I carry around during the day, and my bike backpack is comfy on the bike, but not as an edc, I get off and on a lot
