Richa tankbag, which way round?

[Geodude]

Stupid question time. Which way round does my tank bag go? Is it wide end to front

Or is it thin end to front

Sorry if its a dumb question but im riding down to ormskirk in the morning and ive never used a tankbag before. Anyone got fitting instructions?

Different make, but I always have mine on backwards. Wide bit at handlebars...but I like it that way. As long as its magnetic and it sticks like glue...it don't matter.

I have my tankbag facing in such a way that the carry handle aims towards the front of the bike.

But as has been said, aslong as its magnetic shouldn't really make a difference

yup, and you can get to the zips for the map pocket etc. But if you sit facing the number plate turn the bag around hth

Thanks guys was unsure. :) is it worth strapping it down and if so where would be safest, it came with three nylon adjustable straps but no instructions.

to attach ,straps under tank conected to u rings above magnets (visiable in your pics)
worth it ,no tbh ive had mine at shall we say a bit over motorway speed without issue

+1 on the second pic. I put a strap round the headstock just in case
