Cam & Harry,

I found a strap type 20L Cortech tank bag. Trying to visualize it on the bike as I fear it may be too big/obtrusive. Thoughts?

I'm using the 15L GIVI.  It's smaller than the one on my Beemer but I think anything bigger would have been in the way.


The mounting ring:

Looks kind of weird but doesn't obstruct view of the dash and puts the map case at a nice angle, also pops off easy to get to the gas cap.  In typical GIVI fashion they include a piece of hardware that bolts into existing holes in the steering head and it prevents the bars from hitting the bag. This was a problem on the Beemer the $300+ bag from BMW specifically made for my bike hit the bars at full turn, hitting either the starter button or the directional signal or horn.

It's not a tank bag friendly gas tank.I have a older aprilla bag on mine. It somewhat fits but only has a single strap in the front.Bit of a pain with the ignition switch. Somewhat looking for a 4 point strap bag myself.

Just put a bid in for a Fly Mini bag. About as small as it gets but good enough for a couple items and holding a map. Ad says it comes with tank straps

If that doesn't work out I'll probably ante up and go with the Courtech Low 10L
