Review on 🏍️ Coleman Magnetic Tank Bag for Motorcycles by Jacob Schmidt

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I recommend - with modifications

I bought for my Harley FLTHK. I knew the unique design of the raised center console (which extends to the seat) could cause problems securing a bag. I was right. The bag attaches to the tank, but the magnets in the center don't stick (there's enough metal on the center console to work). As a result, only the magnets in the flaps on the tank stick. Because the center console lifts the bag onto the tank, the magnets in the side flaps have little effect. So I got my wife's sewing kit and carefully added extra magnets. It worked great. The next step was a nice but awkwardly placed handle. Instead of wrapping it, I just cut it off. I really didn't want to do this but thought it would be for the best. So, after the above changes, it's finally working to my satisfaction. As such it is not made specifically for the Harley FLHTK but will work with some modifications. In general, the bag is cheap and the quality is good. After my modifications I like the bag (now).

Pros
  • a beautiful thing
Cons
  • I say nothing
