Beemer Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I just ordered this tail bag from Amazon, It rains a lot in Florida and I keep getting caught in the rain because I don't have anything to carry my rain gear in. It's made by The Cycle Guys and I found it unique compared to other tail bags I've researched. I initially wanted a tank bag, I think they look cool but the two things that I don't like about them is I would have to use one with straps and I don't like the idea of having to unhook it every time I go to put gas in it, which is almost every day and the thought of it scratching my paint. So, I decided a tail bag would be safer and less of a hassle. This one is permanent if you want it to be (straps under the passenger seat) and collapses very flat. It is padded on the top so a passenger can sit on it when not being used and if someone didn't know anything about the FZ 07 they probably wouldn't guess it's a bag. It looks more natural as though it came from the factory. Looks like the passenger seat itself, almost. When I get it and try it out I will give a review on it. They come in different sizes so I checked the Cycle Guys web site and found you need a size [HASH]3 for the FZ 07. Amazon says size 3 won't fit the FZ 07 but they're wrong and it's cheaper on Amazon so I ordered it regardless of what they say. $64.99 compared to $72.95 and it is water proof. http://www.thecycleguys.com/fz-07/ http://www.amazon.com/Cycle-Guys-CG2-03-FastPack-Size/dp/B001KOHRV0/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1435355626&sr=8-3&keywords=The+Cycle+Guys Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member hippiebikerchick Posted June 27, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted June 27, 2015 I've had this for months. I love it and it's perfect for all the reasons you mentioned. Still working great. Check out this thread. I especially needed something to collapse when not needed and the carbon fiber looking top looks cool!

Beemer Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 I've had this for months. I love it and it's perfect for all the reasons you mentioned. Still working great. Check out this thread. I especially needed something to collapse when not needed and the carbon fiber looking top looks cool! Well there it is! I did a search on tail bags and didn't find this one. Anyways, I'm glad to hear people like it. I can finally pack my rain gear or make a quick run to the grocery store. I'm tickled pink!

hairnutz Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Old thread but of all the bags that dont look like bags, I think this is the one Im going to get just for the occasional times I need to bring something home. Anyone with experience with this bag -- is it sturdy enough to hold, say, a 12 pack and not want to fall off / rip velcro around turns at speed?
