In the spirit of warning folks out there about things they might not expect, I wanted to share my experience from picking up my Suzuki brand "Copper/Silver" tank bag from the dealer today.
Its not a bad tank bag, but -- Yuk! -- the color is a greenish-gold, not a match to the bike _at_all_. Yuk again.
Also, in Suzuki's wisdom, they apparently didn't think at all about how the front strap gets mounted -- after looking at it for a while, I finally ended up pivoting up the tank and putting the little loop at the end of the strap around one of the tank hold-down screw ears. Of course, there's no illustration of what you are _supposed_ to strap it to provided in the bag -- maybe I'm just missing it. Suggestions, anyone?
All that said, it seems like a nice enough tank bag, and it does have the Hayabusa ideogram on the side.
