Never had a tank bag before, always relied on just a tail bag and/or saddlebags. But I didn't really want saddle bag stays on the CB and the tail bag just wasn't always quite enough. Sooo, picked up my first tank bag, a Cortech Super 2.0 18L. Then did a nice long day ride.
I love it. It's very roomy - and even expandable. It's completely unobtrusive - never interfered with steering, my belly, or my arms. Although it comes with a nice system to secure it with straps and clips, I found the magnets to be all I needed. Even at sustained highway speeds of 80 plus mph, it never budged. At fuel stops I just pulled it off the tank and set it on the seat to access the filler cap. Easy peasy.
And if you stop somewhere and you're worried about security, just carry it along by the handle like a small pack.
Added bonus was the slick pouch inside that is made to carry an extra face shield.
It was pricey but it really seems like a quality product and one I'm happy to have.
