OK that's the tank bag fitted.
What is it? It's the SW-Motech, Bags Connection, Quick-Lock, City tank bag.
You've gotta do some fettlin' here. The bag needs to be drilled in order to receive the top clamp. This allows the bag to be postioned to suit your preference. I wanted to avoid it being to far forward so as not to obscure the, soon to be had, HDB bar clamp.
I've mounted mine with the connecting ring fixed toward the rear of the bag. I did this to maximise on the useable volume of the bag. The bag sits ~ 15mm above the tank. The way I have fixed the clamp enables the bag to fill out when packed and allows the bag to expand to it's maximum potential. This does means the underside of the bag will end up touching the tank ... it is padded and designed to do so.
The kit is excellent ... you will need a third hand to get the (very short) bolts secured with their locknuts. Bit of a faff but not beyond the wit of man
I'll post the pics in the morning.
