The Triumph tank bag is very nicely built, expandable to unreasonable
size [1] *and* (when you remove the stiffener) collapsible to a more
reasonable size, and the bag can be separated from the map pocket if
you want the map pocket alone. On the down side, if you want to remove
the tank bag (i.e. use it only for trips) you have to deal with the
pad the bag itself mounts on.

[1] I managed to fit a large RF-800 in mine plus a few other items.
