marsee bag and cheapo make your own camelback...

4 point strap, teardrop model (15L it think?). I took it off road this weekend and it never slipped or got in the way of the handlebars. The riding was fairly aggressive, you forget it's even there since you are looking down the road instead of down at the bag. During long,hot street riding I put a water bottle in the back of the bag with a non-toxic vinal hose out the top for drinking. It's not as good as a Camelback but a heck of a lot cheaper. Get a container of bottled water with a "baby bottle" type cap on it. Break off the clicky mechanism and stick the hose inside. I lucked out that the hose fits tight and doesn't slip out. It works great for my purposes however your mileage may vary. You may want to vent the cap for ease of drinking. If you blow into the tube it creates pressure in the bottle and makes the water shoot into your mouth. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD - NO SICK COMMENTS ABOUT "BLOWING" AND "SHOOT IN YOUR MOUTH" - unless your a single female looking to meet a nice motorcyclist with a long non-toxic hose ;-) I don't like magnetic systems, besides it wouldn't hold to my aluminum BMW tank.

Greetings all, Does anyone have a photo posted somewhere of a KLR Corbin seat that has "no dip" in it? I think I understand that there are 2 no dip versions. Lemmeknow. Thanks, Barry Arvada, CO
