Postie brought me 2 presents today

It certainly looks top quality
I've seen they make one to fit the "large" tank as well,,,how's the quality on the bag's themselves
Installed please!!!
The bag i've bought is in BLUE lol. Simply because it's only a solution i won't be using often so the colour doesn't matter.

the cover is as much to cover a blemish on the tank as anything and for a tour in 2013.

Can't install until tomorrow i'm afraid as it's raining currently.

Have one in all black for my duke, fit is excellent in all fairness. Mine is all black but the black and orange is way nicer
Well i dunno about excellent fit if i'm honest... it was a bit of a faff and a bit of messing... Can't say i'm 100% happy, but it will do the job and looks great.

Basically, at the front of the seat you have another strap, that added to the fact the seat unit is already a tight fit and the cover goes between the seat and the tank means you can't get the seat locked. I had to remove the locking mechanism and shim it out about 4-5mm to get it to be able to lock correctly. Bit bemused that Bagster have not noticed this before now.

Another very slight issue is because of the upper fitted steering damper the cover doesn't quite fit 100% on the front, however it's better now than in the closeup pic.

Happily though the tank cover is superbly made and very secure... it also looks triffic

The cracks I can understand, but what's the relation to touring Germany?

I now see that there is a metal clip on it, is it intended for some special tank bag or something?
