Joe Rocket Manta XL Tank Bag

By Steve from Cape Town, South Africa

Pros: Good quality. Tough material. Looks durable. Light. Compact. Cute. Versatile as a little carrier bag at the mall, strapped over the shoulder.

Cons: Very small, even in "XL". Used Oxford Expandable Luggage in the past, but the JR Manta fits the B-King tank configuration VERY well. My very reason for its purchase. Would've liked to have had the exterior pouches expand upward/outward for more room though! Disappointing bang for the buck if space/room was the sole motive for the purchase.

Pros: Nice tank bag. Even though it says XL it's not very big but fits nicely on a sportbike. Large enough for an extra shield, wallet, some tools, jacket liner etc. Separate compartment for cell phone.

Comments: Very happy with the bag

Pros: Well made and stays where I put it on my GS500. Right size for a day-bag. Magnets tuck in for easy carry.

Cons: I wish it had a map pocket on the side.

Comments: There are 6 magnets in this bag, so that should hold it down on just about any steel tank. Cell phone pocket is big enough for any phone (even some really old ones!) You could easily put 2 modern... (Read the rest of this review)

Pros: Surprisingly small looking. I was shocked at first and wondered how much would it hold. I was able to stuff a bag of bagels, creme cheese, a jar of orange marmalade, my cell phone, my wallet, my disk lock, and a can of soda. There probably was a little more room to stuff some take out food too. Magnets are STRONG. Even on my CBR600 RR where there is very little metal, it stuck on pretty well.

Cons: I don't like the strap it comes with. It seems a little strange. Feels like a big camera bag or a medium size purse.

Comments: Overall I think it is a great investment. Wish it would be bigger though, hate to see how small the regular one is.

Pros: Nice looking bag on the bike, holds its form even when not loaded to capacity. Magnetic mounts fit perfectly on my K1 GSXR 750. Has a handle and strap attachments for carrying off the bike.

Cons: Not what you'd call "XL" by any means. Medium at best.
