Nice bag, enjoy!

I reccomend Rok Straps to keep that baby synched down nicely

I ordered a set with the bag!

I don't think you'll need them. I'm pretty sure you'll find it comes with webbing straps that attach to your bike and clip onto the rings at the base of the handles. You then tighten them down.

You are correct, sir, in that the bag includes straps. But even the dude doing the Revzilla review said he'd trash those and go with Rok Straps. Other reviews confirm they're the best thing to use to lash stuff to your bike and at about $18 for a set, a cheap investment.

Rok straps are indeed wonderful things. I love mine. But I have a couple of SW Motec duffel bags similar to the one you’ve bought and have found the webbing straps work really well to tie them onto the bike. YMMV


RE: Soft Trunk Bags - the Ferret - 12-12-2021

another thumbs up for Rok straps. So much better than the old bungee cords

Those look VERY similar to the Cortech soft bags on my GSX. I figure they'll go well with the CB and I can transfer them in about 3 minutes:

And since apparently my monster url doesn't work, try this version:

Well poop.

Okay, 3rd time's a charm, hopefully.

THESE are what I have on my GSX that I'll move over the CB:
