Anyone using an aftermarket tank bag on their K75? If so, what are you using and does it work well?

If you can find a bag with a four-point mounting system it will be a little easier to install. Under the front of the seat the two frame tubes are the obvious rear mounting points, and should give a more stable mount. That said, RKA makes excellent bags and developed their system when the K100s were new. The RKA guy I talked to at A&S in Roseville said to just make a loop out of their rear mounting strap, run it around those tubes, and you're good to go. RKA bags, in whatever size works for you, are quite nice. I ran a Cortech for two years until the bag pad beat itself to death in the wind and sun. I currently run tankbag-less and will be following this thread.
I liked it. It was convenient as a small backpack off the bike, and it was narrow enough not to limit steering. I think I have the 10 liter size. Build quality was just fine, too, except for the base (probably UV related). I haven't been able to find the padded base through the usual retailers, so I'm using a regular backpack these days. Sure is easier to gas up! Here's a photo...
