Here is a couple of more pics of my tank bag. I put them here because I wasn't allowed to email them (no option). Anyway it's a Joe Rocket bag. I am an outreach worker and needed a bag to keep my lunch in and I carry a big daytimer as well as two phones. The bag has a rain hood in it to cover the bag and it has a clear window for your phone. And a spot at the front for your wire for devices to go through, also has a strap for carrying. The bag requires no strap it has magnet flaps as well two underneath the bag. I will put a cloth under it because I don't want to scratch the old girl. It's pretty deep, I can put a 6 pack of cans in it and close it if that gives you any idea of the size. I pais around $60 canadian for it. Very happy with it's intended use for me but I would get something bigger if I was going on a long cruise.
Hope this helps,

Very nice pic!! Wish I could participate...there is a memorial to the "Fallen Four" in Mayerthorpe, AB that I would ride to...but not until March or April...
Too bad, it would have been a nice pic...I will probably make the ride anyway, but obviously not as part of the challenge...
Later.

Trevor....I have that same bag. I bought it because it was the only bag I could find that would fit on my V-Star tank. Now I use on my Vulcan...it's a great bag.
