Product Review: Mustang Tankbag
Got this Mustang Tankbag from Chopra in Karol Bagh for Rs.535. Tankbag contains a large jacket, windcheater jacket, helmet visor and a towel and there is still some space left. The top portion has a see-through pocket where one can put in a map and a compass to keep track of where they are heading. Add to that there is a detachable goggle case in the side and a small pocket towards the rider side to keep money etc.

The bag itself is height adjustable, in the photo below the bag is opened up to its maximum height. The bag has seven magnates (one in the center and three on each side) to keep it in its place.

Sachin she was washed around a week back, haven?t waxed her yet! Will do so on Saturday

As for that missing thing on the front mudguard, well it is a clamp to hold the speedometer cable in place. Lost it quite a while back, couldn?t find a replacement for it when I got my bike serviced.

As for the tank bag, well it looks good and is priced quite well indeed, lets see how it performs.

Do you guys think it will be safe to keep my camera in tank bag, considering there is magnate in the middle of it?

Nope I will be carrying a tankbag, saddlebag, backpack tied to the rear seat and a small day bag. Just that tankbag is the most easily accessible of the lot.

Nice piece of luggage there and at a good price too! Now I will be waiting for a Product Review after you are back ... I am glad now I have two options for a tank-bag.

Cheers,
Shamik
