Yukon WP fits excellent on Suzuki V Strom 650 XT as well. Very well made tank bag and perfect locking mechanism. The magnetic closure is magic BTW 🙂

My prices are aligned with the RRP and I’m conscious of supply chain issues. Being the cheapest when supply is hard to sustain is suicide. Been in business since leaving school in 1991 and quickly learnt that being the cheapest is a race to the bottom of the barrel. Not looking to rip anyone off but quality retailers and quality consumers recognise one another. I do discount products but generally offline (via email interaction) and when an accumulation of products are purchased and discount is rewarded respectively. Re the KZbin ads. I consciously try to remove them as I rely on sales as a sole revenue stream and not KZbin. If you’re seeing ads on my videos, that’s not my doing. I think KZbin put them on there regardless whether I monetise or not.

@@ABIKETHING Steve, me being in sales or a long time and working for a reputable blue-chip Multinational manufacturer selling premium products, it is true that when you sell on price you loose on price. I know that you also use some of our products when you work on bikes because of its premium quality. In the end You get what you pay for. However when people are buying the same brand/product it doesn't apply and price sometimes will play a major role at all. AND you are right each country, market , retailer has different situations. I live in Canada and if I take the taxes in UK + local currency, I don't see that you are selling at a higher price at all. Take the ASV C5 brake lever. if I want to buy it from the US it would be around $180 CAD which is close to what you are selling it at. I believe it is Ok if consumers pay a small plus for the price when they get a premium support, information and how to from the seller which is the case with A Bike thing. I just wish you have a store here in Canada lol !! Or maybe I can make a visit one day to your store in UK. Keep it up. Cheers !

The magnet is so weak that the top cover opens by itself at 150 km / h. BMW F-900xr. I have a Puga windshield, no matter if it is lowered or raised, the lid opens and covers the entire cockpit, Very annoying when you have to get distracted every now and then and close the lid.

I've got the old version of this bag in a nice hi-vis colour on my SV650 that I use as a camera bag. Do you think this version would still be good as a camera bag, as I'm soon swapping to a Triumph Sprint ST 1050? For reference, I'm running a Canon 600D with a Sigma 17-50mm wide angle lens, so it's a moderately bulky setup. If not, what else in the SW range would be good for that purpose?
@ABIKETHING2 жыл бұрын
Well I run a daypack on my bike which isn’t waterproof but I still put my Sony mirrorless in there and store a rain cover in the lid just in case. I use to have a 600D too. Agree, bulkier but it still fits in the day pack fully closed which is 5L. Yukon is 6L

I just got it today and turns out that it won't fit the bike because I have pull back bar risers. I got the Rox pull back risers and the bag is not compatible unfortunately.
@ABIKETHING2 жыл бұрын
Yeah I guess this would be an issue if you’re changing the position of the bars. Bar risers would be ok but bar back risers will definitely reduce the area where the tank bag would sit.

Any idea how this or even any of the range sits on the new 1200 tiger? I feel the tiger has a slightly odd tank cap position so am worried about which tank bag to get for it!
@ABIKETHING2 жыл бұрын
I think there will be a bit of a wait for the tank ring for the new Tiger. I haven’t checked if it the same fitting as its predecessor or not. I’ve sat on the new 1200 and the position of the cap and shape of the tank didn’t scream out to me that it’s going to be a struggle to get a tank bag on there. I’ve just sold my KTM so I may be looking at getting in the new Triumph to push products for it.
