Re: Talk of tank bags etc.

http://www.bagster.fr/
is the page to look at.  They make some lovely stuff and will match most bike colours near perfectly in good leather. The range of products is called BAGLUX.
The page lists distributors for each country, with contact e-mail, tel etc.

In case anyone else went from a T595/T509 to the ST, my T509 tank bag fits fine, and is lower than the ST version; the 'bra' is pretty much the same size and its hard to notice its for a different model.  It seems to be made of heavier guage Cordura also.

cheers

Finally got round to reading my backlog of Motorycycle News
papers (from June onwards!), and discovered a short and
non-technical article by a buy who had been given a Sprint ST as
a pet to take on holiday with him - as an incentive to report on
long-term results and touring performance etc.
Interestingly, he fitted a Baglux (tel. +44 1745 338080) tank
bag and harness (never seen either in the shops here in the UK)
and Oxford Sports panniers.
he also computed running costs, costs per mile etc.

The items concerned, he listed as costing the following:

Baglux tank bag  .... £70 ... 30 mins'  fitting time
Baglux tank harness .... £70 ... 10 mins' fitting time
Oxford panniers ...£110 ... 2 mins'  fitting time.

(I suppose the tank harness is what is lovingly called a tank
bra in the States ? )

If anyone wants to read the whole article - only 1/2 page of
solid text, it's from MCN August 11, 1999, p. 34-35.
