Lol use the "oh sh!t" strap. Mine attaches around the bars, has saved me twice in the past. Magnets are only good if you actually remember to fold out the flapsSo you hope to catch it in mid-air
revival of the dead thread is always good lol. i dont use either as well. For one simple reason. Sport bikes look lame with bags lol. I use a backpack when i have to take my freeze out stuff in case i get cold, otherwise i try and bring nothing. On my cruiser on the other hand they look cool with bags so i have 2 saddle bags, a smail tail bag and a phone holder for the tankI just use a backpack. I don't want to take off a tank bag everytime I go somewhere and lug it around. Unless they design them to also be backpacks. Tail bags/bins are for touring bikes in my opinion.
I had a tank bag I rigged for a tail bag for close to 6 months...it was small and wouldn't hold much...plus I didn't like the placement...looked good but functionality was lacking...Even if I have all my luggage, I use a tank bag once in a while. I usually replace the top case with my Pelican tool box when I ride to Miami for weekend work. Over time the tank bag/magnet damage the clear on my tank. Almost 43K miles now so it's part of wearing out but not something I plan using on the FZ-09. I got a locking mechanism that screw on the gas cap... I'll be getting one of those quick release bag from T-Throttle.
Tank bag are fine and I will get one. But I will use ine that fit with a quick connect ring like this. The bag/magnet won't rub the clear off the paint like it did on the 6R.I had a tank bag I rigged for a tail bag for close to 6 months...it was small and wouldn't hold much...plus I didn't like the placement...looked good but functionality was lacking...
I added cortech saddlebags and tail bag...much better... but still had functionality issue.... now I have givi saddles & trunk...love them, but bulky...
I still want a tank bag as its a nice place to put phone, wallet, etc and you can get at it all quickly and easily with it infront of you.
Thats bad a$$ ... would love to see what it looks like once you get the bag on there...I always wanted one but prices are ungodly!Tank bag are fine and I will get one.
