Ive been looking into a Ogio backpack but saw plenty good tankbags including Ogio at Bikes and Bits Nepean Hgwy. E. Brighton. DONT get backpack Im considering!!

My small magnetic tank bag is a Dririder.
Bigger tank bag a Hustler.

Both excellent tank bags. (Although I have rarely used the Hustler.)

I'm sure any good bike shop would sell them Aza.

Cheers, Phil.

Bagster certainly make an excellent tank cover and tank bag, however I doubt you can get one inside 2 days to colour match your Busa.



Watch magnetic tank bags as any grit that gets between the bag and your tank really scratches your paint up.

Gee pity you weren't in Queensland we have 3, 2 (Dri-rider and make unknown) smallish magnetic ones and 1 large Rjays one you hook thingys (yeah can tell who the engineer is in our house huh) under your tank. Every time I put the magnetic one on my tank I always give it a rub with a damp paper towel to get any dirt or (as a mate found out the hard way) star washers that the magnets might of picked up. Usually carry all those little extras that us girls need like a torque wrench, tire changing kit, screwdriver set, lippy, eyeliner etc etc Greetings

and here I was Trix, bracing myself for a picture of a fat old woman clutching the front of a bike or something. I better help you out, keep in mind it is a short notice.

Picture of really fat chick omitted.

I'm not sure where the magnets are on this tank bag. Edited by: glen66 at: 27/12/06 19:50

um, yep, um.. ok.

I can hang off a little bit... dont tell to many people but for this weekend I will drive a car. First time in about 9 months.

I am interested in the mangnetic ones, I was skeptical but have heard since that they are pretty good. As for the scratching, I'm also told that you have to be careful with the tank bra bagster type ones anyway as the dirt gets under them.. so... no bag would suit me better but apparently the hair straightner, the spare shoes, 3 changes of clothes are more important than i realised...

If the bike gets scratched, it is just the bike gods telling me its time for custom paint... and that will hurt less than a slap in the head when my gf realises I emptied half the stuff out of her backpack.. (I keep telling her that her spine is more important than her hair straightner but Im wrong there as well)

So now that i have typed allot of crap, i will consider the back pack magnetic one glenn, but no rush.. I will make sure I have it before Jindy to carry several sets of spare jocks... I will convince myself that is what I want and then place the order. Bought time I bought the few other things sitting in my cart as well

[AzaVic]

mine same colour as max pic... but less chrome cause chrome needs cleaning, so more black is the way to go..

That way I can easily take it with me when at events etc.

They extend out to carry your helmet which is pretty neat, bloody good bag that. I'm sure we can strike a better deal. I'll pm you later with the lowest price that I can. That is a great combo you have Max. Nice fitting cover.
