pick Posted May 19, 2008 Share #1 Posted May 19, 2008 I'm looking at either at a tank bag or bib to put small items, (sunglasses, rag, etc.) for riding. Wolfman wants $99 for a magnetic bag, and haven't seen a large selection of bibs for the venture. Anyone out the have any experience with one?

BIG TOM Posted May 19, 2008 Share #2 Posted May 19, 2008 I HAVE THE BIB FROM YAMAHA..IT HAS ONE ZIPPERED POCKET WHERE I KEEP MY KICKSTAND PLATE (SO I CAN PARK ON GRASS OR BLACK TOP) AND ONE VELCRO POCKET WITH A FLAP (I LIKE TO RUN MY LOWER PATCH CORD THRU THE FLAP SO IT DOESNT GET CAUGHT UP ON ME)..ITS OK, BUT I REMEMBER THAT MY SUN GLASSES WOULDNT FIT IN IT..TATERS TELLS ME ITS BECAUSE I HAVE A FAT HEAD..I GUESS ITS PERSONAL CHOICE. ALL I CAN TELL YOU IS THAT THERES NOT A LOT YOU CAN PUT IN IT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M61A1MECH Posted May 19, 2008 Share #3 Posted May 19, 2008 Hopnel makes one, see the picture below, I have this on my Venture , holds sunglasses, kickstand plate with no problem. I did have a hard time finding this model on line, I was able to pick one up here in Daytona at J&P cycles during bike week a few years ago. http://imagehost.vendio.com/bin/imageserver.x/00000000/vstreet/BBP_Y60_101BK.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike_kelly_68 Posted May 19, 2008 Share #5 Posted May 19, 2008 Daytona Gear makes several lightweight magnetic bags ranging from $40.00 to ??.?? I have the smallest bag and get my MP3 kickstand plate glasses smokes and gate opener in it with no trouble. daytonagear.com will give you links to resellers.

KeithR Posted May 19, 2008 Share #6 Posted May 19, 2008 I have the Hopnel Bib as well and I attached the wire clip from the tank to the side of it with a couple of rivets and a elastic to keep it from rubbing on the tank.....see pic's Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
