The bag does have to bend to contour with the tank and it’s not yet fully adjusted on the front straps, however, here’s the pics as requested -

Pfff,call that a tank bag


Get the kitchen sink in mine Christ it looks big.
No wonder the bike was top heavy

Thank you sir for taking the time to take and post the photos.

I am tempted to remove the shoulder straps that are folded in under the base of the bag, which would allow the base itself to follow the lines of the tank and not perch on the top.
I don’t use them so it wouldn’t be a great loss.

Thought you didn’t want a huge tank bag?

Here’s the bag without the straps and waterproof cover underneath, which I think looks much better.

I don't, it will never adorn the RT again.
Yours now looks a lot better,I always cut shoulder straps out,not like I'm ever going to use them

Must of been something in the back of me skull Steve,was perusing marketplace earlier in the week and a very nice gentleman in scouseland had one of them bags for sale.Only used twice he said-£26 posted.I took the punt,arrived today and its virtually new.
As yourself,I've cut all the gubbins off/out and to be fair it's a nice bag.Far better than that 20ft container I had loaded on last year.






Nice one Steve

A pleasure mate, that’s a hell of a bargain!
