I bought one on sale to try out a tank bag. I love the concept and the bag but would like a magnetic base. Cant seem to find a base only. By the way Motorcycle superstore has them on sale for $35. Nice, big bag.

What I did, was took a razor and opened up the seam on the stapon base just large enough to inserted 3 rare earth magnets. Two up front and one in the back. And then sealed it shut. Works like a champ.

If I hadn't bought a new Rapid Transit Recon 19 magnetic bag, I'd be all over this bag ($39.99 from Motorcycle Superstore) and do just exactly what was posted above. :thumbs: I was thinking of using six (6), two centered underneath Fore & Aft and one in each corner. Using both bags loaded can get pretty heavy. Just a thought. :chugbeer:

Thanks, I think I will give that a try. I like the bag a lot but when it is packed to the max it moves around a bit. Magnets should help that in conjunction with the straps.

Although there is nothing wrong with using both, I bet if you get the right magnets you won't need to mess with the straps. I wont move at all. ;)
