well made tank bag, very handy for long rides and m'bike tours. I kept my disc lock, compact camera, a 500ml water bottle, plus some power cables for phone and helmet cam all in the tank bag. Easy access, saves dismounting from bike to open top-box just to take take a swig of water. Keeping the disc lock in it meant that too was easier to access if I needed to park up for a short while, and also helped to re-centre the weight distribution from the back end of the bike. I used a cable-tie through the carry-handle and around the handlebar to secure it further. It meant I could dismount and walk away from bike for a while and not worry too much someone might try to remove the bag.

Was hoping this to be easier fit. It doesn't fit the tank as well as expected and the magnets aren't strong enough so you either have to strap it to the bike which is pointless as you need to unstrap it to access fuel filler cap or use the very wide and uneccesarily long strap to secure it to handlebar. The main compartment is tiny, again only useful for passport and documents but then you wouldn't want to leave that strapped to the bike so you have to unstrap it when you leave the bag, you're then left with very long straps dangling. The so called phone holder is too small my Samsung galaxy note 4 will just fit width ways but doesn't go all the way in. Considering most mobiles are 5" this is a pointless compartment. It also gets condensated easily. There is no access port for a charger lead or headphones. Overall, pretty useless unless you want somewhere to put a pack of chewing gum and Nokia phone built in 2005!!Read full review

Magnetic's could be bigger, with perhaps one at the top rather than just the sides. The only way to pull the top down the the level of the tank is to tighten the bar strap. As I take the bag off with every trip, of which some are short the extra afore mentioned Top Magnet would be an advantage, rather than strapping it down with the numerous straps provided. Other than these few points it's a great bag, and true Givi quality.

Do not buy this if you are expecting a big bag. It is just a small tank bag. It is handy for storing a few things to save you rummaging through pockets. It is well made and the magnets are plenty strong enough to stop it sliding around. I use it on my Gen 5 VFR and it stay in place nicely. I bought it with the intention of using the see through pocket on top to hold my phone so I can use it for SATNAV. In the real world, the material is too shiny to see the screen through and it is almost impossible to see past the glare. I might try giving it a very light rub with some wet and dry to see it it fixes that. You wont fit a big modern phone in it, but my 2020 Iphone SE fits perfectly. The zips are good quality and easy to use with gloves on. There is enough space in it for some essentials. A bit pricey at £35, but it is well made.Read full review

I wear a tight textile jacket & having had the misfortune to come off in the past any bulky pocket content will add to the bruise count or worse. Bag holds wallet, keys, 2 mobiles a battery back up for phones & a sandwich in wrapper comfortably. View window is ideal for mobile although I wouldn’t recommend over a handlebar mount if using as a SatNav. Magnets hold fine & I chose to wrap the clip on strap around the handlebar yolk so nice & secure at motorway speeds +. I commute daily 20+ miles each way over a combination of motorway & twisty B roads, works for me & recommended 👍 would get 5 stars if waterproof but does come with a cover so overall a good buy
