luke325i Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Hi folks. In a new rider and new to the forum. Already posted a hello in the intro forums. Im looking at this tank bag because its nice and compact. http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/cortech-micro-20-tank-bag Ive heard on this forum that you need to modify something for it to fit the bike? I know it has magnets(useless) but comes with straps too. Can someone who has done it explain how much work it takes? Much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member norcal616 Posted July 5, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted July 5, 2015 From the picture it looks like you will have to remove the seat and the left and right plastic panels on the tank to run the straps since the tank is covered by the plastic panels.... 2015 fz-07- Hordpower Edition...2015 fj-09- 120whp- Graves Exhaust w/Woolich Race Kit- tuned by 2WDW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke325i Posted July 5, 2015 Author Share Posted July 5, 2015 The only thing you will have to do is remove some plastic pieces to run the mounting straps since the fz-07 has a plastic shell covering the gas tank... Remove plastic pieces on the straps or on the bike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke325i Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 Is anyone able to go into any more detail on what actually needs to be done so i feel ok ordering the bag?

Premium Member grahamfz07 Posted July 7, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted July 7, 2015 I saw a youtube video for installing a cortech tank bag on the FZ07 a while back. It was the larger bag but probably the same concept, found it. Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
