Tank bag issues

[vifferman]

Before I bought my tank bag, I did some research WRT magnets stuffing up bank cards, cameras, etc. It's not a problem! I suspect this rumour is either just urban myth, or comes from someone with a crappily designed bag.
With my bag, despite it having very strong magnets, there is enough padding etc in the bottom that there's no measurable magnetic field in the bag itself.

So it's those fucken magnets in my tank bag that do it! I had noticed an alarming correlation between riding my motorcycle and the depletion of funds in my bank accounts. Now I know what's causing it I shall throw my tankbag away.

I was reading a UK bike mag (last months) and they had a bike in it with a plastic tank. The bag they used had a replacement "ring" that goes around the filler cap, the bag clips to that and the writeup said it didn't wiggle etc. I left the mag in Ohakune but a google should do it.

i saw a neat one at my bike shop, a strap on one. might look at picking it up eventually... would be handy for stuff i dont want moving to the bottom of a full backpack [specially small stuff like coins that are impossible to find again!]

Store a magna-rug in the tank bag, it will take all the stresses away.

Go the Oxford magnetic tank bags.

My one survived being flung down SH16 in a highside and has subsequently been tested at over 250kph (on closed private roads, naturally) without any adverse effects.
