OK, I just pried the trim piece off. The Moco has some love for that double sided tape. I put the bag on tonight and it looks good. My leg will definitely hit it when stopped but not while riding. I don't think it will be annoying but I'll find out on my ride in to work tomorrow.

Pic attached.

Got my battery bag today. Question, how do I remove the chrome trim piece from my battery cover? Is it held on with double sided tape? Strangely I thought it would just pop off but after pulling with w good amount of force I stopped for fear of breaking or bending something.
I could'nt believe how strong that tape was glued onto the band. I just kept a hair dryer on it for like 15 minutes and kept pulling it away. I didn't want to wreck it so I was careful. It finally broke loose with the heat.

Ur leg might hit it a little, but after a while u don't even notice it anymore. It's well worth it for the convenience.

You know what would be cool for this bag, if BAD&G could somehow make it like an accordion folder where it could collapse and expand as needed. A little bit smaller for just glasses and gloves but can expand if you need to stuff a few extra things.

I wonder if you could accordion fold a thinner leather on the sides and if that would have too much of a negative impact on it's stiffness.

Yeah, I just put one of these bags(different clasp) on mine and I had no issues. I had previously taken off the silver strip to paint it black but there was never any double sided tape on it, just the four tabs that needed to be pushed out.

Ditto^
Still the most handy bag on my bike, other than the "loud grip".

The Throw-Under version is doubly awesome. Glasses, gloves, stuff from the hardware store.
Small but convenient bags.

SLV,

Does the throw under flop around or do the bags stay put? I Like the idea of that set up.
