I just received my Cortech Sport Saddlebags as well as my Joe Rocket Manta tank bag. I tried to search the forums about installation information, but the only thing I really found was how to install the Cortech Sport Tailbag, which I might be getting a little later on. As for the tank and saddle bags, I have a couple of questions about each.
As for the tank bag, I noticed the magnets are really strong. Has anyone else used anything between the bag and the tank to prevent the magnets in the bag from scratching the fuel tank? Or, is the rubber/microfiber material on the flaps sufficient enough to prevent scratching?
As for the saddlebags, how in the world do I install them? The instructions included with the saddlebags were so generic it made them pointless/useless. I also noticed there were 4 loop straps with a female end only. What are these used for? Given I am new to cycling and my FZ6R is my first bike, I am almost clueless about some of these things.
Any help would be appreciated. Once I have everything install, I guess it will be time to have a photo-op and post pictures on the forum. Thanks.
