I've got the same bag, and had the same issues with straps hitting the bodywork. Tried some heavy clear soft plastic to keep it from rubbing - flapped in the wind and messed up the paint worse!

I found that removing the rear seat and attaching the bag directly to the seat worked better. I adjusted the bungies so the hooks could all be hooked together snugly under the rear seat pan and then re-attached the seat.

Worked a lot better for me.

I agree, this is the way to go..
I have a joe rocket tail bag and when I first got it I thought the velcro straps were made too short so added more length to it with a couple more strips of velcro so it would attach under the rear tail.

.then one day I realized the short straps were designed to hook under the rear seat..not under the tail...so now I just pop the seat..hook it. re-attch seat..It is actually more stable cuz the seat being closed down helps hold it even tighter
