  1. Standard Bagster seat off my 2018 900GT , sat on for 8,000 miles or so. A Few scuff marks that won't show up on pics. No cuts, tears or other damage. Buyer collects , Central Scotland. £100.
  2. Craig , Thanks for that. Perfect. I didn't think there would have been positioning options for the lockring - given the MT505 is small. (Unlike as you say the larger bags which have got three/four pre drilled options). Multiplying the three main dimensions of the 505 gives 11.7 litres: I realise it's not a cuboid shape but the similar calc for the EA123 bag is less than 6 litres. Which is confusing for bags both quoted as 5litres. The 500ml bottle in your pic clearly shows that your MT505 bag is not circa 11 litres.! [On my Tracer GT I happily used a Givi XStream 15litre bag BUT I have just changed to a Multistrada V2 and the Xstream covers the ignition key. (The extreme forward position of the Tracer GT ignition key is a great benefit to tank bag selection.]. It is this change that is having me research the smaller offerings. Thanks for your input.
  3. Alabama Craig ( or any other MT505 Givi bag owner). How close to the front of the bag is the tanklock ring ? Can the ring be fitted right up at the front i.e. the end of the bag nearest the ignition.?? A pic if the underside would be useful.
  4. Alabama Craig, The Metro 505, five litre tanklock bag, is quoted as 5litres and 190 mm x 280 mm x 220 mm ( HEIGHT x DEPTH x WIDTH ) Significantly greater dimensions than the EA123 Givi 5litre bag. EA123 quoted as 100mm x 260 mm x 200 mm ( HEIGHT x DEPTH x WIDTH ) . Does the Metro bag seem like 5litres to you or a bit larger ? [I asked Givi, last year, to explain the anomoly but just got waffle).
  5. I will be advertising my Bagster seat on eBay soon (Multistrada V2 950 due for delivery ) but putting it up here first. Rider and Pillion seats. The seat has been on my 2019 bike for 8k miles or so. No scuffs to speak of as sheepskin cover normally in use. I am located Central Scotland. Seat is a standard Bagster, black with blue piping. Sensible offer on here might avoid eBay.
  6. Do you still have the tank fitting off the "old bike"? Why doesn't it fit the new tank ring ? DIY mod ?
  7. Don't forget to check out Kappa tank bags.
