Chase Harper 650 works great!
I really like the Chase Harper 650 magnetic tank bag. I wish that I had purchased it ten or twenty years ago. On my '73 Triumph 750 Twin (with a steel '72 Tank), it sits perfectly just aft of the fuel tank cap and is firmly fastened via the magnets and is easily removed. (From the back side of my gas tank cap to my crotch, the distance is about 15" or so, so there's plenty of room for the bag without any interference.) As such, I have ample clearance when moving my handlebars left or right or steering with my legs. I don't come close to contacting the bag when cornering or anything else.I haven't chosen to use the additional security strap that is provided to fasten the front of the bag to the steering column as the magnets seem to work fine, and I've now gone up to 65 mph with some spring seasonal winds so far without incident. The magnets work great, and I won't use the strap unless the bag ends up lifting from the tank, which I doubt will happen. It seems to be fastened securely.I can fit size 11 shoes in the bag, albeit a little tight when putting them in. I've dropped items such as a two inch stack of printed documents inside with a slight center curl to them to get them to easily fit inside, and on other times I've carried my lunch, riding gloves, and other things in the bag. In addition, the side, top, and interior pockets all accommodate various items as well. On the top exposed mesh pocket, I find that it's convenient to put my clear prescription glasses inside when wearing my sunglasses to ride, and the pull tabs on all of the zippers make opening and closing the zippers a breeze.At first, I looked at the bag and thought that it might be too tall, but it actually fits my tank perfectly. It's not too tall and it's not too small. I had thought that maybe I should opt for an expandable bag, and I also looked at the 450 for smaller stuff and the 950 thinking that I might not be going large enough with the 650, but I realize now that the 950 would have been way too large for my tank. The 650, at about 5" tall, seems to be able to carry everything that I need to go back and forth to work daily and for weekend day trips. If I need to carry a laptop or anything bigger, I slide on my backpack. For 90% of my travels however, this tank bag is absolutely perfect.I haven't used the included clear plastic map sleeve that is made to hook on top of the bag as needed, and I took it off and put it on a shelf in in the garage should I ever need it in the future. I may use it one day, but I surely don't need it now, and the tank bag does not miss it one bit.I'm really glad that I got this tank bag. It works, and it works well for me.I'm also glad that the bag was made in USA! That's a good thing, too.Ride safe.

great price and fit
Powerful magnets, never had a worry about it coming loose even at 90mph. Have used as tank and tail bags. Easily holds water bottles, gloves, shirt etc. Very heavy duty nylon. The single down side is the side pockets are mesh, nylon would be better, but the tank bag is incredibly useful and perfect for day runs. I have used on everything from Gold Wings to vintage 70s bikes, with utter satisfaction.

Solid, Sturdy Bag of Good Construction
The bag mounts well and holds well on a Triumph Bonneville. It doesn't shift or bobble while riding. The material that contacts the tank and I'm sure it minimizes scratches to the paint. If it were expandable (because sometimes we want to come home with more crap than we left with) I would highly recommend it. As it is, it doesn't disappoint. Kudos to this company for making a good product.

Great little bag
Love this product so far. It’s been great to have on the bike. Magnetic mount holds tight enough for anything I’ll ever need and releases easily for convenient take along. It’s big enough for quick trips to the store for those “honey will you grab a loaf of bread” runs. I haven’t had or used it long enough to give it a 5 star ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rating but it’s well on its way.

Perfect size, wrong magnetic strips.
Interior of bag is a perfect size, but the magnetic strips that arrived didn't match the picture (flipper rather than paddle style) and were too short to attach to my tank so I had to return it.

Great American Made bags
Great bag. I have a smaller Chase Harper bag and this one gives me much more space for clothes and other items for small trips. the clasp for my other bag is the same with this one so no need to change it. Just clip it and mount the magnets to my tank and off I go. Very durable and well made. As with my other CH bag theres no frayed ends or damaged zippers. I love the mesh top. I put my phone in there and turn on my music playlist and just ride and jam. There's a mesh pocket inside and a velcro pocket. I keep my insurance card in the velcro pocket. As for your wallet, I have 3 Trayvax wallets and I keep them in the top zippered pocket where the clear map insert is held and no problems with the magnets messing up my credit cards. Haven't had any issues with the magnets damaging my tank with scratches. when carrying just tuck the magnet flaps into the back pockets and off you go. As im sure there are other great tank bags out there, im very happy with my two Chase Harper bags.

Perfect Size
I really like the size of this bag. Not too big...not too small. I'm using it on a 2017 Suzuki SV650. The front magnets didn't line up right for my tank due to the design of the tank. I purchased some Applied Magnets 1.26" x 1/4" with Countersunk Hole Neodymium Disc Rare Earth Magnet from Amazon and added one on each side of the front flap of the bag. Used a seam ripper and a sewing machine to sew it back up. The two additional magnets fit perfectly to my tank and it stick strongly - no safety strap needed. The bag has several pockets that are useful as well as the main compartment. The plastic pocket worked well with my touch screen on my iPhone. Very satisfied with this purchase. The magnet modification wouldn't be needed if my tank was designed differently. Needing extra magnets was not the fault of Chase Harper. I believe the normal magnet configuration would work fine on a smoother rounded tank.
