slickster Posted April 15, 2011 Share #2 Posted April 15, 2011 There are lots online, I got mine at J and P cycle...the magnets won't scratch your pain, I did add a small loop of webbing and attached it to one of the bolts holding down the plastic cover around the gas cap...

etcswjoe Posted April 15, 2011 Share #3 Posted April 15, 2011 I got mine from New Enough (motorcyclegear.com) and I belive they give a VR discount too. I got small strap on bag just because of the bib I have on my bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twigg Posted April 15, 2011 Share #4 Posted April 15, 2011 The magnets don't scratch if .... You keep them clean. Mine have been great. Additional fixings are great for peace of mind, but completely unnecessary in practise. Those bags do not move even on sports bikes doing over 100.

hig4s Posted April 15, 2011 Share #5 Posted April 15, 2011 I use a small Joe Rocket Manta tank bag, had problems with it staying at first, but after I removed the rubber bib from the tank, no problems.. Have used magnetic bags for years on several bikes, they have never scratched my tanks. I have manage to scratch several tanks myself, but not with the magnetic tank bags.

ThomWill Posted April 16, 2011 Share #7 Posted April 16, 2011 I have a small "Manta" style bag and a larger on from "Cargo Basics" (got it at Cycle Gear) that I use on longer trips. The big one will hold a LOT of stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
