I'm sure some people would (read: Bear) welcome it, but I don't think you'd welcome their actions which followed
Of course it'd be bloody hilarious for anyone watching while you struggle

Tankbag magnets are very strong, I've never used the stupid strap ever, and I've done some very fast speeds on 'peages'(honest not over the speed limit ) and its never moved.
A tankbag is super for when your tired and you need to lean on it

Don't let anything get on those magnets.
Been using tankbags for years with no scratches.

I use the only use the "stupid strap" to hold the tank bag over to one side when I'm refueling.....although that can be a bit cumbersome at times.

+10.... on leaning on it!
