NIce write up Jim! I was thinking you might want to think about tweaking your design to create waterproof tankbag covers. I still can't understand why all luggage meant for a motorcycle is not waterproof, but I know that some of the bags I have used have raincovers which are crap. Ditto for saddlebags. Just a thought.

Mine is great too! So far I haven't been in rain but washed the bike with it on and the sheepskin was bone dry underneath afterward. Great product...now if we can just stay dry on the ride BACK from the Bash!

When you get 5 of 5 from MCN, which takes no ads, that's something to be proud of. Well, proud of along with the good reviews in Roadbike, Web Bike World, etc. etc.!

True DAT!

Next thursday will make one year i've been riding with Jim's seat cover. I can swap it between both the stock seat and the triumph gel seat.

One of the best accessories I've purchased.
