Default tank bags

do magnetic tank bags work on our bikes i was lookin at the icon http://www.kneedraggers.com/details/...-ICON05-1.html
and didnt know if they would hold since we have that plastic fering on ours?

any one had luck with these if they do work?

Tried em out at the honda dealership...the icon bags won't work. Not enough metal.

Sucks, huh?

Yup, I can verify that the ICON tank bag does not work. I had one for my Ninja ZX-6E, loved it, but when I get my CBR no go. I sold it to a friend of mine.

Not very much. However, i think that if you cut away some of the foam underneath the cover, you could probably get a magnet in there.

Okay so I'm at my dealer/buddy's today buying a new bike. He has this new back called a T Bag. If you don't know what this means well then let your imagination work. But I regress, this bag had suction cups on it. Made for bikes that don't have enough metal on them.

Hey fellas, my Watch Commander told me he bought a tank bag but after awhile it scratched his bike a little. I saw it for myself. Its enough to complain but its not noticeable to the average guy. Just FYI.
