I can't even remember how many times I'd take a ride to run an errand where I had to pick something up, only to find the item was a little too large for my swingarm bag.
So I'd end up fighting the damn thing, oftentimes just squashing it in as best I could - hell, once I even removed the packaging and just stuffed the item in.
This morning it finally occurred to me that the straps on the bag were there for more than just decoration - it never dawned on me to adjust those to give more room.
I hate moving the buckles on the straps. Luckily, I haven't had too much stuff that won't fit. I almost wish I had gotten the 5" wide model, instead of the 3".
