I haven't seen any pictures of how the Kriega tailbags look on this bike, so I thought I'd show how the US-30 looks on the weeBR when it's pretty full.
The attachment system is really easy after you look at all the pieces, though the docs that Kriega ships with the bag are a little bit obtuse. There are four pieces of nylon that you just loop into the frame underneath the seat and leave hanging out about an inch or so from under the seat. You can see it where the aluminum hook near the front of the pack hooks down. I did have a bit of an issue after buying the pack, when the carrying strap that comes with the bag popped some stitches and failed on me. But I sent an email with pictures to Kriega and another strap is on the way, free of charge to me.
It's easy to get on and off and it secures very tightly to the bike, as long as you don't mind compressing what's in it, though I have had groceries (milk, fruit, veggies) that I have compressed pretty tight without incident.
Oh, and this thing hold so much stuff. My lunch, office jacket, laptop, charger, bungee net, small tool bag, moto jacket liner all fit with room to spare. That's what in it in that picture, and like I said: room to spare.
I'm thinking that I want to spend the $135 to get the US-10 and tank adapter for use as a tank bag. This stuff is well made and has stayed dry through two decent rains while riding. Completely recommended.
