RE: [ST] Tri vs Held tankbags.

["Marco Beckwith" <marcohome@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi John,

Just last week, I installed my new tank bag.  It's not a Held or
Triumph, but a Tank Locker.  It secures on the gas tank filler bolts.
It's easily removable and doesn't use straps or magnets.

You can buy them online direct from the manufacturer or telephone order
from the owner of the company:
http://www.luggagelocker.com/tanklockerm.html

The quality is good.  There's one big compartment (expandable w/
external zipper) and one map area.  I had them sew on extra "D" rings
when they made the bag so I can attach a shoulder strap.  As I recall,
the extra "D" rings cost $3 more.

Best of luck and happy holidays,

Marco

Hi all,

Does anyone have experience with Held brand tanks bags?

I was planning on buying a Triumph tank bag in the Spring, but a sale at
New 
Enough (I've dealt with them before and they're great) has me thinking
twice 
about it.  Any suggestions or comments?
