Hi all,

I am in the market for a magnetic tank bag (the whole backpack thing just isnt doing it for me anymore).

It would be great if it could fit a pair shorts, sneakers, and other random things (cell phone, wallet, keys etc).  So I estimate it would be a mid size bag for everyday things.

It is really difficult to estimate size and fitment as most of the websites just provide a picture of the tankbag alone.  Anyone have one that looks good with the monster ergos?

Thanks!

I got this:  http://www.newenoughhp.com/luggage/tank_bags/nelson_rigg/cl350_large_magnetic_motorcycle_tank_bag.html

Sorry, too lazy/buzzed to go out to the garage, slap it on and take a photo...  It's kind of a largish bag, but it follows the Monster tank contour nicely.

Chase Harper here on mine. Perfect size for day trips. I keep it on my scoot almost all the time; it's like my glove compartment...  [laugh]

What would ScoobyDoo?

I got one on ebay. It's some off brand, and I think I noticed (too late) that the seller ws off shore, but it all went well. Got it in about two weeks and it seems to work.  I don't have any illusions about longevity, but WTF, I won an auction for like $35.

Check it out, when I got mine the guy had 8 or 10 auctions going.  Probably hi-jacked a truck  or something.  ;D

Um, doesn't your bike have a plastic tank?

I wish, if it was it wouldn't have gotten that annoying tank dent when the kickstand stuck into the ground and the old handlebars decided to be just weak enough....you know the rest.   [bang] :P

I am liking that chase harper bag but I have my doubts whether it would be large enough.  Is it expandable?

No, it's not... This is my other tank bag - a DP, for longer trips... And its huge, + expandable...



The day after I picked up my S4 in SoCal; before riding it 2200 miles home to WA state over 5 days up through the Sierras... ;D
