Enjoy, Buelldualsport! I've had mine on for over two years and have a bunch of stuff in it! It is a GREAT bag. I use it instead of a tank bag. I'll give you a tip though. It will eventually start to rip at the 'tail' seams if you put stuff in it, use it a lot, and don't support it. I read on here about it happening and how folks were using the nylon belts($2 or so at Walmart in the camping gear section), and I checked mine. Sure enough it had ripped/torn over 4-5 inches! I hadn't noticed. I have used the belt since and NO problem and no more ripping. I put the belt around the bag and Triple Tail just below the Buell emblem on the bag and about 2-3" down from the top of the Tail. Enjoy! It is a well designed, very useful bag. |

the one i bought used had a rip but took it in to shop and they sew it , it is wide enough to have it sewn and still be able to fit it in |

Don't suppose somebody either has a pic of this common rip or one with the straps on (or both) to help avoid this? I have had the bag for a few months & would like for it to last. Thanks |

It's a good piece of kit. +1 on "belting" it to the triple tail. The belt is useful for other things too. I've threaded it through the handle of gallon water jugs, used it to hold the outer layer of my TourMaster Flex jacket, hung a gym bag full of beer and sandwiches on it.... |

And my latest happy discovery- a Rotopax 1 gallon fuell cell fits perfectly into the shoulder-strap compartment, so you keep the fuell secure and hidden without any additional mounting hardware, yet easily accesible.I use 2 rocstraps to secure the bag to the triple tail and threaded the Buell safety lock that I received years back thru the top carry handle and my Caribou luggage rack. Works great. |

Springer1 used the triple tail bag when he delivered the 08 Uly to NC. Worked like a charm. Thanks all for the assistance. |
