    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • This forum is for placing reviews for parts, accessories, gear and service as it relates to your GS motorcycle. The key here is "GS Related". There is a bit of latitude here but we don't want to see a review on Maytag washers just because that's what you use to clean your riding jacket in.

    Keep your review as factual as possible and please refrain from personal attacks. Posted articles will be reviewed by the Editors and may be removed at their discretion.

    So let's make this a useful addition to the forum! A special pat on the back goes to Hap Call for coming up with this great idea.

    The views expressed in this forum are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of "The GSResources" or the editors.

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Newenough.com has a nice Nelson-Rigg CL-650 tank bag on closeout sale for $46 plus shipping. I just picked one up and will post a little review here. It's decent sized bag with straps for better security. Also has an expandable height adjustment from 8" to 13"

Here's the link if anyone else is interested:

I read an interesting tip on attaching these bags (using 3 attachment straps (2 front, 1 rear).

May be common practice, but the tip was to put two straps through the male connector at the rear, routing one to the left and one to the right side of the frame. An alternate was to use one longer strap looped through the frame sides with the ends coming back together at the connector.

This "triangle" should help reduce shifting side to side of the rear of the bag.
 
got the bag in 3 days from NewEnough. it's big! should be plenty to fit a laptop, a change of clothes, and a pair of sneakers. With the top unzipped, I could pack away enough for a weekend!

A steal at $46.
 
Thanks for the heads up, I have four tank bags, but I am tempted!
