Tank bag

Tank bag
I did a search of the forums and didn't find anything of value.
Anyone use a tank bag for long rides?
Are they more trouble than they are worth?
I don't want anything to obscure my Heritage dash.
I've seen some reviews on a Nelson-Rigg NR-150,
Seems like a decent bag that will allow for my Heritage dash to still be visible.

Interesting, when I click the link for that I get this message : "

Anyways, if you have zero other storage a tank bag will help, doesn't really look like that is the case with your bikes. I used one for a little while on my low rider but noticed no matter how careful I was it still scratched the tank up.

I have a tank bag and used on my Sportster and now on my SG. I place a microfiber towel under the bag and it has large magnets that hold it in place. I use on trips only for all the maps, route sheets, chargers, etc. I does not slide around and is pretty firm on placement. When I'm done on the trip, it comes off and goes back into gear cabinet. Only draw back is I gotta remove it, place it on the seat, then hold the gas cap in my hand when I refuel.

This can mean that something shady (like the manufacturer paying for fake reviews) was going on.

Also, my Son has less accessible storage on his Heritage so I'm thinking of him as well.
We've got a 3000 mile trip planned for later this year to Deal's Gap and am looking for things to make the ride a little more convenient.

My need really isn't storage in general but rather accessible storage at 80mph.

My question as it relates to the use of a tank bag:
”Are they more trouble than they are worth?”
