Echo that...jimfj, you are the "G" man
!How do you like the tank bag? Do those magnetic bags really stay put? Also, do they really NOT harm the paint?

I'm just enough redneck to want to try that once, but not enough to actually do it.

My daughters found out that sidewalk chalk, when crushed and mixed with water makes a wonderful paste that you can spread on just about anything. You think the driveway looked bad, you should have seen our black Lab. The girls told us they made the dog into a zebra
The tank bag works very well. I have ridden without my windsreen at highway speed and it doesn't buge. That particular style bag has 4 magnets and doubles as a tank protector so a belt buckle wont scratch. I keep the tank waxed pretty well and I've never seen any indication that it is doing any damage.
I am very pleased with the bags. they have tons of storage and don't move around at all. They take about 3-4 minutes to install and remove from the bike. They come with everything you would need to add them to your bike and also include waterproof raincovers go on in about a minute. Another nice feature is that the saddlebags will accept the matching tail bag as well. There are 2 quick release clips on top of each bag and it just snaps on. Nothing else to hook up and the tail bag is connected in 4 places.
I called Fieldsheer to request a set of instructions, there weren't any packed with my bags and they emailed them right away. They were great and said if there was anything I needed help with just to call. Nice customer service, I wish every company I"ve dealt with was that way.

Saddle bags
How do your new saddle bags fit to the bike? Would it be a problem if my seat is.... home made/after market? my bike doesn't have the grab bar in the back and the seats is fairly level..

Now that I'd like to see a picture of! Funny & creative kids you've got....You think the driveway looked bad, you should have seen our black Lab. The girls told us they made the dog into a zebra
.Thanks to you and Craiger for the info on the bags. I've an old strap type tank bag now. It's pretty good but I will not be using it when I get the new tank on. The current tank is no showpiece so it's hard to say if it scratches. Although it does have a really nice pad, the straps themselves are the issue.
If the bags do not stay put I have no use for`em. I hate having to screw around with it when I'm riding

Saddlebags
I bought a pair of "River Road" saddlebags, have no complaints with them per see BUT... What I really wanted was a pair of RECTANGULAR bags, NOT the kind whose lower ends are on a diagonal, designed for crotch-rockets with high and rising exhaust pipes.... Anyone know some good [big!] ones that are instead squared off at the bottom? Thanks.
