Not exactly a tank bag, but along those lines. http://www.tbags.com/enlarge.aspx?id...avigatorlg.gif

I really like the thing and had a few people ask where I got it. Really well made and no problems at 85 mph. Not waterproof though. After 350 miles of wet, the directions were a little tough to read. Looked like a 4 year old water color painting...

I use a joe rocket tank bag (manta xl), but put it on my rack behind me. the magnets stick really well to the rack. on trips when I have my t bag behind me I put it on the tank.

Baaseman1,

Did the tank bag cause any damage to the paint? Suction cups, straps or magnets?

I have one I used to use on a motherwell solo rack behind me (it fit the rack well) but have never used it on the tank.

Zero damage to the finish. There are 6 pretty strong magnets between the 'fabric' so the only thing touching the tank is the rubbber-like backing. This thing doesn't budge in the wind either. There are other (cheaper) makes out there, but I really like the quality of the t-bag.

Baeseman1, the Cortech that I have has one of those on the lid. you are right, when it rains, it doesn't take long for it to fog up and get moisture on the inside. Great on dry days though.
