If you search for 'crash bar bags, Suzuki VStrom' you should get loads up. If you can't find any that look as though they will fit, message some of the suppliers and ask.
Or, check their e-bay shop.

But, if you put bags on your crash bars, you will have to put bars around the bags. What if you fall off and tear them?

They do protect the crash bars quite well and although at slow speed it hardly marked the material. ............ so my friend said!   :whistle:

The idea of putting one more set of bars to protect the bags is good but then you'll probably need one more set of bags to protect the bars that are protecting the bags that are protecting the bars. But then you'll need...

As I could not find any bags that would fit the crash bars I have ordered a set of Lomo bags, will post a photo when they arrive.
