 Posted: Fri Mar 04, 2005 8:11 pm Post subject: Tank/Tail Bag for Skorpion Tour |
 |
|
I've had my tour for about three months now, and I love it, but the lack of storage is getting to me. (Really wish that the seat had some more storage underneath.)
Unfortunately I passed up an eBay sale for a Skorpion-specific tank bag a few months back. Big mistake. Anyone have any suggestions for a really good tank/tail bag that works well with the Tour's non-magnetic tank cover? |

Hey guy,
I have the Skorpion specific tank bag from Motorrad, it worked real good for me, it's kind of ratty now, but if you want it I will send it to you. I parted my Skorpion out last week and have no use for it. Send me your address if you are interested. |

That's a nice offer, but I think I'm looking to buy new. I appreciate it, though! |

I understand, new bike needs a new tankbag. You should be able to get the Skorpion specific bag from a dealer for around $125. The other bag I used was the RKA 16 liter expandable tankbag, see it at:

It fits good, its big, disconnects from the bike in a flash, good map case, and they are well built. I used it on a couple of bikes. |

Good site! Thanks for the pointer. They're pretty close, too. I'll investigate more. Might even be fun to ride up there one day to check out the shop in person. |
