I'm partial to the touratech bag, but they are pricey.

yeah- been looking at them online- seems like a good bag- trying to decide what size- not cheap

I'm using the small BMW GS tank bag. It fits perfectly on the tank (natch), doesn't obstruct the bars, and is easy to take on and off. I chose the small one rather than the large because I don't carry too much stuff in it and wanted to keep it as unobtrusive as possible. I'm happy with it.

I have the large OEM tank bag and love it.

It doesn't get in my way- but I can see where those of a shorter disposition might have trouble with that. The removable fanny pack is pretty cool.

My only complaint is the zipper attachment at the rear. It's turned out to be less of a hassle than I originally thought it would be. But snappy clips would still be my preference.

I have a 2009 anniversary edition with the alpine white tank. I didn't want to cover my tank. (It's like a work of art really) I bought the Wunderlich handle bar bag. I only use it for my Ipod and wallet anyway.

I have the small OEM for my 07 GSA. It's not supposed to fit, but it does with very minor modifications. Like mentioned before, the small size does not obstruct the crossbar but it really holds very little.
My only complaint with all BMW OEM tankbags is the plastic map pouch yellows within 1 yr. It does not get hard and brittle, but it is very yellow and obstructs map details.

My clear film is turning yellow also.For the price of these bags why not use marine grade goods isenglass or strataglass?

I pesonally like the Wolfman Explorer Lite. Not too big, not too small... just right! And, it's very well made right here in the US of A.
