Author Message   Stainlessmag Posted on Thursday, June 10, 2004 - 02:29 am:        Does anybody have any experiance with the tank bag on an xb9s, How much can you fit in one, does it get in the way, scratch the airbox cover at all. Im going away for a long weekend soon and cant seem to find a set of bags i like for the bike so im thinking of going with the buell tail and tank bag. Also does anyone have any pics of one installed on the bike   Xb9er Posted on Thursday, June 10, 2004 - 01:07 pm:        see the Xb--r bags by Buell? topic. Mike.   Fullpower Posted on Thursday, June 10, 2004 - 01:32 pm:        i have used my Buell branded tank bag for 5000 miles. very handy. it is all i need for a thousand mile weekend, not counting my Harley-Davidson (brand) rainsuit lashed to the back of the Corbin (brand) saddle. only slight issue so far is that it could fit a bit tighter. in 30 mph crosswinds it moves around just a tad. i may soon through bolt it to the airbox cover, then it wont move. buy one, you will like it.   Stainlessmag Posted on Thursday, June 10, 2004 - 04:36 pm:        The other bags i was thinking of are the tourmaster cortech sport saddle and tail bag set. Any thoughts anybody.   Daves Posted on Thursday, June 10, 2004 - 05:14 pm:        I have them in stock and a 10% discount. Ride to the edge!

I have one on my 12 demo and so far, love it!

I haven't had a chance to take them anywhere yet, but they seem to fit my 9S pretty well and I heard from another post on the board that they did well.   Buckinfubba Posted on Thursday, June 10, 2004 - 11:38 pm:        the buell tank bag is perfect...... fits a 12 pack and a carton of smokes and gloves and rain suit perfectly. don't ask me how I know   M1combat Posted on Thursday, June 10, 2004 - 11:45 pm:        "Anyone ever tried a Joe Rocket tank bag?" I have one but it mounts via magnets. I got it as a Christmas present from a friend. I harvested six very powerful magnets from PC hard drives at work. At some point I'll be finding a way to attach them to the underside of the airbox cover.   Stealthxb Posted on Friday, June 11, 2004 - 11:19 am:        Let us know how it goes.   Skully Posted on Friday, June 11, 2004 - 01:36 pm:        Stainlessmag, I have one that I use on my XB9S and like it after I made some modifications to the straps. And yes, it will most definitely scratch the plastic air box cover. I put "Saran Wrap" between the cover and the bag and no more scratches. See "From Cruiser to Sport Bike - An XB9S Rider's Log by Keith Thrash..." in the "Tale Section". Keith   Tucsonxb9s Posted on Friday, June 11, 2004 - 02:11 pm:        I have the tourmaster cortech tailbag. Love it. It's expandable, has built in bungees with a foam non-slip cushion. Couldn't tell ya where I ordered it from, but it'll run ya about $50.
