Tank Bags
« on: December 08, 2006, 01:57:14 PM »
Hi:

I have joined this forum in order to obtain opinions/information on tank bags as I wish to purchase one as a gift and am clueless as I do not own a bike myself :o :o.  Any suggestions for a good tank bag (Magnetic) for a 1975 Honda CB550F would be greatly appreciated.  I am looking at three in particular but would like some feedback on brands and if they would be a suitable fit (have not been able to access any fitment guides).  They are as follows:

Oxford Humpback Magnetic Tankbag which is expandible to 26 liters or 16"x12"Dx11W.

Tour Master Cortech 21L Tankbag .

Rapid Transit The Stack LT Magnetic Tankbag.

The recipient of the gift wanted something large enough to fit a helmet and a few extras, as well as the viewable map holder.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

I have something similar to that TourMASTER bag, it works fine on my 550F. I do wish I had bought a slightly smaller bag now.
 I'm pretty sure all of the bags you chose will fit the bike, it has a pretty flat and big tank so most magnetic bags should fit.

If I had to choose from those 3 bags, I would pick the Rapid Transit.
