Can't say I've heard much about them except people ordering seats and them arriving with small tears.
Probably be inclined to check at a bike shop or warehouse to see whether they sell them, and if not, why.

Sorry mate. Can't help you on that one. Not sure what the bagster price is with bag, but Jamie might be able to help you there.:thumbup:

Cheers

Yeah I was lookig at them too. not sure about the non leather tank cover. The bag is plain looking and seems to be smallish. My concern was how was the tank cover lined does it scratch the tank?.
Can anyone help? this link shows the bag. http://www.topsaddlery.com/sac_popup_articles.php4?ref=SAC02027

changed my mind now, the bag is 30L so should be ok. Think ill just go with a magnetic now, i dont really want to cover up my tank.

Just a word to the wise with the magnetic one's mate,when you refuel don't sit it on the ground or if you do make sure you wipe the magnets , they will pick up anything metal no matter how small and scratch your tank.

I use a magnetic tank bag Jules and its pretty good , i just sit it on my seat when i fuel up and when i take it off i fold the to magnetic flaps over each other for protection from picking up stray metal bits , dont like metal bits in my flaps :spank: :ban:............Ohh yeah and magnets dont hold on to well after say 200ish not that i;d know :eyebrow:

This thing looks like a pretty good copy of the Bagster system, which is awesome....i would go for this set up over magnetic...having said that, some of the magnetic bags are pretty bloody good, and a fair bit cheaper, ok, a lot cheaper than the Bagster option....but Bagster is extremely high quality stuff....

So if you wanna go for something which is probably just as good as a Bagster set up, but infinitely cheaper...i reckon the Top Saddlery bra is a good way to go...

The Bagster Bra is well over $200, and the bags start at about $80 for the smallest...

Also looks like the Bagster bags might fit that bra too...something else to think about...

Just my 2 cents.
