    Default New Tank bag for F3

    Just thought I would share a new product available for the F3. Well not new but the F3 is a new application.

    This is a SW-MoTech tank lock EVO Engage tank bag with an adaptor ring on the fuel fill opening. It attaches and detaches easily and is very steady while riding. Holds quite a bit and does not seem to interfere with control or viewing of instruments. The contour comes out looking like it was designed specifically for the F3.

    Skip my previous request--I found a magnetic tank bag "Mad Dog" at Walmart for $38.99 including shipping & tx. I have had 2 magnetic tank bags over last 16 yrs & Have never had a scratch on the tank from the material covered magnets. Some of the other non magnetic bags have adaptors that would look silly if the bag wasn't installed plus their price is 4 x the cost of the Bull Dog & I like to be able to carry the bag into the grocery stores to see what fits inside if my saddle bags & frunk are full. Never worry about the magnet bag slipping off of the tank--it takes several lbs of pull to remove the bag from the tank & I've had the bike up to xxx mph--no problem.

    Same here. OP... Could you let me know what year/make/model tank ring you have? I am very interested in this bag. Thank you!

    The link posted does not say "Can Am" for the mounting hardware so posting the link is pointless unless there is a bike listed with the same bolt diameter as the Spyder. Which bike is it?

    Try again, I corrected the link. There was an ampersand inserted in it by the SL Forum editor for some reason.

    A magnetic bag is useless on the F3 as the 'tank' is plastic. I posted a photo of what the bike looks like without the bag on.

    Can you verify this adaptor kit will fit on the F3-F3's models--have you installed one?

    The link provided does NOT state it has an adapter kit for the Can Am. I'm "assuming" one of the listed brands can fit a Spyder but which one? Would be nice if the thread starter stated this since they started this thread.

    I did. The link I posted to the adaptor will take you to the specific Triumph bike that is a match. The adaptor is a perfect fit, including the hardware that comes with it to install.

    Thanks. I was buring brain cell at a rapid pace. The link never took me to the Triumph adaptor.

    It kept asking which bike

    I noticed you have the same F3 with GPS mount as I do. Does it block your GPS and instrument display? What seat do you have? Is it comfy?

    The 650 Triumph does not exist in bikes listed for that tank adaptor. Am I missing something? Also, exactly what bag did you buy, there are several different types. Thanks

    The bag does NOT come with the tank ring. You have to purchase separately.

    To get through the menus at Revzilla, use a 2015 Triumph Daytona 675.as the bike.

    I re-read the item description and discovered the item comes with the UPPER tank ring and a second tank ring is needed. Sorry 'bout that!

    The tank ring has to go on backwards due to direction fuel cap opens. This causes the bag to have to be mounted so high it interfers with the ignition key. Did you find a way around this?
