Tankbag question
I've used a few tankbags, but am looking at getting a new one. I've pretty much discounted the Oxford range (not so hot in a crash, limited capacity in the "Sport", don't like the lack of zipper along the back, etc.), I like Nelson Rigg stuff, but their tankbag doesn't seem their best product.
Looking at this; http://www.motoin.de/Luggage/Tankbag...rt&language=en I was wondering if anyone had any experience of this or a tankbag like it? I've often wondered why the storage compartments didn't extend further down the side/onto the tank and this looks ideal. I'd rather have the extra bulk here (so long as it doesn't encroach on legroom) than on top like an expander tankbag as I usually have a Tomtom mounted in the middle of the headstock and you have to peer over the top of taller bags to see it. I tend to ride sat quite upright when using luggage, so something that comes quite close to where you're sat (and would cause problems when in a racing crouch) wouldn't be much of a concern to me. Within reason, money isn't an object, so long as I get longevity out of it, I'd be hacked off it any zips failed etc. in less than 25K miles. Any recommendations? Edit: Proper waterproofing a bonus, but not essential as I usually double carrier bag stuff in tankbags. |
Re: Tankbag question
Proper waterproofing = Kreiga tail pack + a "tank" conversion pad. 10 yr guarantee Money no object would be a bonuus :lol: see group buy thread

Re: Tankbag question
I have a Buffalo tank bag, like thi one.
http://www.busters-accessories.co.uk...uggage/Buffalo Very good quality, waterproof cover if needed. Never let me down yet. It's got a rounded rear end Just like.............(no I'd better not!) that fits well against your body when you lean in. You fit the base which has a map pocket and zip the top on and off, really usefull feature! Works for me. Pete |

HTH So it sounds like a TANK would cope & it's up to you if you want a wide low tank bag. Why would a 20 not be big enough? :???: |

Baglux evertime.
Quality build. Tough as old boots. Great aftercare for spares etc. Waterproof cover but I still have a bin bag at the bottom. 6yrs of use , stiches and zips still where they should be, not for the lack of trying with the amount of gash that I can get packed into it. :) |
