I have researched the archives and found threads about 2 years old on tank bags. I was wondering if anybody has any recent opinions or experiences with the Kawa tank bag vs. the Wolfman Explorer. Brent Bacon Central PA A15

I like my Joe Rocket magnetic. The front magnets stick to the front surface of the tank while the rest stick to the side. The gas cap takes up some space but that's OK. It's a little long as well but the price was right. -Paul A15

The Kawi bag is fairly small. The Wolfman is about the biggest bag you can get that will fit the KLR. Ya wanna biggun or a small 'un?

I use the Eclipse Standard bag mounted upside down on the KLR (single buckle at the top). Lots of room, just don't put heavy stuff in the side pockets or you risk tank scratches. Arden Kysely A11 "Mr. K"

Any ideals on tank bags for the KLR? I'm considering the Wolfman Explorer, and thoughts? Will it work with the Areostich standard tank panniers? Thanks Mark

I have a Tecnic magnetic tank bag, which I think is meant for a sportbike with a sloping tank. It fits the KLR perfectly, will expand vertically, and was really inexpensive. I have a Wolfman tank bag (not the explorer) for another bike- they are really nice but you will definitely pay for what you get. I got the Tecnic as a stopgap measure originally, but I really like it. Almost any tankbag will interfere with stand-up riding. Devon A15 mark hanke wrote:

Check out the Marsee Teardrop bags. They have a 15 liter and a 20 liter bag. I don't know where the difference is, they show the same dimensions on both bags at: http://www.marseeproducts.com/page/tankbg1.html I will get one of these when I find out what makes them different from one another. Aerostitch panniers -MAY- interfer with some magnetic tankbags but not with any strap ons. Not that I can see. Gary

I wasn't exactly sure what a pannier was so I looked it up. Straight from the dictionary: A framework of wire, bone, or other material formerly used to expand a woman's skirt at the hips. A skirt or an overskirt puffed out at the hips. Then it said the root word had it's origin as a bread basket................... Only in a group of scoot heads. MAN!!! taf

Are we talking about saddle bags? Or is that strictly a HD term? Brad J. Morris A16 Illinois
