Looking for suggestions for a small tank bag with map compartment and minimal storage. Not enough long travel plans on the Uly now to justify the expense of a GPS, but need a place for a map or printed turn by turn directions. Thanks. | ||

Cortech Mini - not Super Mini. If you get a grommet kit, you can mount the front straps so that you do not have to remove the bag for fueling. | ||

Thanks for the lead! I'll look into it. | ||

Where did you locate the grommet kit? I talked to a Cortech dealer who had no idea what I was talking about. | ||

Sorry I wasn't clear about that. I got mine at Ace Hardware. I forget what size I got but it was a large size so that the bolts that hold the air cleaner cover can fit through them. | ||

I found the packaging for the grommet kit. It is 3/8". | ||

OK, thanks. Another question on using the map holder, any issues with viewability with a full face helmet? | ||

I just installed the http://motopakluggage.com/gtxmini.html on my XT and it fits great. The map area isn't bad. I just used a soldering iron to shorten the straps, and melt some holes thru for bolting in on with the air box bolts. I just need to trim the neoprene padding around the air intake.   Ive also just put some strips of velcro on the tank and slapped a map case from a Touratek tank bag for a BMW F650 I had. You may be able to buy just the map case. The 650's gone and so is the map case or id show you that setup. |
