One setup that works well, without a rack on the 09-11 Burgs, is the Wolfman Rolie bags with their saddle bag mount.

What I was looking for, being a cheapskate, was a way to carry about 1/2g of fuel on the tail for enduros and DS rides. I don't need the extra gallon from the 70 degree sub all the time and its a big expense for 4-5 rides a year. I mostly HS with my kids right now. I figured I could ride 20 miles or so and at a check/reset dump in a qt. Repeat taking the stress/weight off the tail ASAP.
I can get 2 qt bottles in a $40 tailbag but the fender doesn't seem as stiff as I need. A little support would really go a long way back there. Maybe I can build an extension off the mini aluminum rail on top? I've thought about chopping up the underside of the left number plate too and stashing a bottle in there. I'll be giving it an eyeballing soon.

What you need is the Mo Javi bag from Giant Loop. It will hold a 32 oz fuel bottle on each side, plus room for a spare tube, rain jacket, and tools. You will never even know it is back there. I love mine, but I have not used it on my new Husaberg. You have to have a place for the straps to go through on each side. With a regular bike, you use the subframe, with the plastic Husaburg subframe, that will be an issue.
I figured out how to get it all mounted up on the Husaberg. This works great for hard trail riding where you need to catty a few things and some spare gas. I hate wearing a backpack, so this works for me. Crappy cell phone pic.

You could try a tank that fits between the fork tubes like this one; http://www.trialspartsusa.com/for-the-bike.html scroll down.
