There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

It's nice, holds lots of stuff. It's a bit of a pain when you go to fuel up as you have to unbuckle it. Is it worth the money, NO!

Not exactly beating around the bush, exactly what I was hoping for! :thumbup:
No way to attach it to the seat instead of the grab rails to avoid the fuel removal sequence? That would really be a pain on a long trip.

I find that I open the seat lock, tug the seat up... only to remember that I forgot to undo the two fasteners. Just a bit of a drag. Only takes a second to undo them... but several seconds to do them up. Valuable ryding time wasted. :roflblack:

I used to have one and it was actually quite nice. I found I only had to unclip the forward clips for fuel and it had a shoulder strap for carrying off the bike. I sold it when I decided to get my bikersfriend bag so that I would have a backrest. Overall I think it was a nice bag and looked good on the bike.

Nancy uses hers a lot. Easy enough to refuel if you just unfasten front straps. She carts all her stuff to teach at school in it, which is quite a feat. Says it is easiest bag she owns (and that says a lot) for carrying down the hall to her classroom. It will even carry her laptop. Worth every penny to her.

This was the first accessory I got for my Spyder after I got it. I use it most of the time and think it is well worth the ~$95 I paid for it. I keep my rain gear in it and if I'm solo no trailer it is on the bike, two up no trailer it's in the trunk, w/ trailer it's in the trailer. ATGATT

I used the bag for the first time this past weekend, when I stopped to fuel I only had to unsnap the front straps. It was great not having to open the truck to get my camera out.

What about the Corbin Seat?
Hi I’m Danny I traded my H-D for a 08 SM5 last week it has a Corbin seat since that is a two piece would the straps still have to be undone to gas up. The Corbin hinges at the back of the solo saddle. I will get some pictures of my bike when I get a couple of things installed. I have a J&M radio and am mounting a zuma 550 and XM radio. Also a new windshield and the murdered out pipe (carbon) the bike already has HID head lights and fog/running lights mounted to the front fender struts. I am also putting on the fender leds and signal lights from no magic. I have been watching this forum for a few weeks getting ideas. I think I am going to order the two way. The wind shield is the Cal Sci. Oh yah I also have the 4" risers and ISO grips and mini boards mounted forward.

This can't be my buddy...Wrong paint, wrong pipe, wrong wheels, wrong windshield, wrong pegs, wrong handlebar covers, no center tail light, wrong rear fender, wrong seat, no Corbin bags.
Nope, don't recognize that Spyder and trailer at all. Great looking Silver/Black though! :firstplace:
Hey, I've got a great idea! My buddy could buy me a Passenger Bag and surprise me with it! I can handle the install myself!
hyea:Got to something about that wardrobe though...

I looked at the BRP seat bag, as well as the tank bag and I'm sure they are fine, but I decided to go with the Cortech mini tank bag and the Cortech sport tail bag. They both fit the spyder well, and have plenty of storage for my needs. They are also much cheaper than the BRP bags. I paid around $66.00 for the Tail bag and $59.00 for the tank bag. I'm still able to lift the seat to add fuel to the tank. The bungie ties on the bag have some give to them to allow me to lift the seat.

Ron,
You forgot to mention: it's obvious from the photo that there is no Ride-On in the tires...

I have a cargo net stretched over the back seat. I find it useful since it will hold down different size and shape items. The back seat can also even be used by a person without removal, but if you choose to remove it, it takes up very little room in the trunk.
