tank cover - to stripe or not to stripe?

[paulgthomson]

which one do you think? I am thinking the plain one is cooler:

[Robster]

I always thought the stripy one was cool on my AT...matched up with the fairing stripes really well

[paulgthomson]

Ooh, that does look cool. You don't have any other pics do you? You might have just changed my mind!

[doglegdon]

I have the plain black as suppliers in SGP had no stripey ones, looks okay if you slap a couple of stickers on it. Any difference in the cost 'tween stripey and non?

[paulgthomson]

There is only a £10 difference. THe plain black one also looks a little smaller - does it cover the whole tank?

here's a picture of the striped one on my @

Paul,

I have the top one in your picture. As my bike is currently getting sprayed yellow you can have it cheap if you like?

Will post a pic later.

[Robster]

Go Stripy, you know it makes sense! Especially if RichieB can do you his one for cheap!

I've been thinking of one of these tank covers too. Are they worthwhile?

How easy are the bags to clip on to get hold of?

[Robster]

Definately worthwhile I think yeah if you're doing any kind of touring.

The Bagster bags are easy to get hold of (unfortunately I've just sold one or you could've had that) and they unclip from the Tank Cover at the rear and hinge up for refuelling. Much better than the magnetic jobbies in my opinion.
