R1150R Tank bag?

[stinson646]

I have a 2003 R1150R and am looking at tank bags. I like the looks of the BMW bag, but haven't seen it in person yet. I like the way it's shaped to fit the tank, and also the zipper design for releasing it in front of the seat. Any inputs on this or other, maybe better bags? Thanks.

I am using a Marsee magnetic tank bag. One of the virtues of the steel tank is that it allows a magnetic mount bag. Easy on - easy off.

I like the Bags Connection Day pack. It fits onto a ring that attaches to the gas cap. The bag never touches the tank, and it removes easily for gas fill-ups, or if you don't want to use it.

I previously used a Big Mak. It flips up, which is great for getting gas, but everything in the pack gets flipped. It is also sort of ugly, IMO.

Here is the one I have now.

+1 on the bags connection with the tank ring connect.

+1 on the Marsee magnetic. I've used it now for 6 years and 79K miles on the Roadster. Very handy...and the magnets hold almost too well.

Which Marsee are you using? I'm looking for a long-range bag.

I have a magnetic Tourmaster tankbag with a map pocket on the top. It is fantastic! I have had it for years and have ridden many thousands of miles with it.

PM sent, I have extra Marsee you may be interested in.
