I received the bag today from New Enough and strapped it onto the SR. I have not yet decided to buy the associated saddle bags.

The bag appears well made (I'd hope!) and looks as though it will be easy to access with gloves. There are several separate compartments and it comes with a shoulder carrying strap and rain/dust cover that goes over the entire bag.
Here are the links:
Tail bag
Saddle bags
They also have a smaller "sport" version available tail/saddle bags as well that is similar to these in function.

Guess it wont last long then. :laugh:
Not sure if I'll ever use it, but I thought it might come in handy.
I always use a tank bag, so I tossed it in there.
The tank bag has some tools and general emgency fix it up stuff like elec. tape, some parts, ties, cable/s etc.
It's expandable, has tons of pocket including the map pocket up top, works as a back pack, has a man purse attached etc.
I just don't like covering the tank with the bag at all times.

There's some good stuff out there.
Especially when the bike starts becoming
part of our basic transportation plan we
need the ability to carry stuff.
I like the soft bags since they can
be taken off in short order when not needed,
say for a sporting ride.
Nate! . . . Get away from that Suzuki! :woohoo:

My father has a set for his VFR with tankbag, tailbag and saddlebags, all some 'motopak' brand, all expandable that we used on a roadtrip last year.
I have a motopak tank bag. It works perfectly on the 1100. I got mine cheap on ebay.
