Show me your tank bag! (pics, pics, pics!!!)

I'm a new proud owner (two months so far, and 190 VERY cold miles) of a 2012 tri-color and I'm looking for a good tank bag. If anyone can post a pic of their bag with brand I'd greatly appreciate it.

I'm a bit particular: I'd prefer magnetics and they have to lie fairly smoothly. I used to have a VFR800 and the only bag I liked on it (after four tries) was the cortech tank bag with the gas cap mount. loved it. Because of the setup of this bike's tank (no screws) I can't mount the same bag.

I've been eyeballin' the firstgear stuff, cortech, and Givi. I tend to lean towards the non-rectangle style bag. Max storage capacity isn't a big concern of mine; just need something to hold the essentials.

thanks in advance!

Keep in mind what one person doesn't call a scratch another will -- for that reason I'll never use a magnetic bag on the 250 (when I upgrade, I do plan on getting a ring-lock on like the OP had).

If you do get one, I'd recommend looking into tankslapper film -- Essentially it is the same/similar to what is used to clearbra a car, and given the cheap price if it did scratch the film you could just remove and replace it:
