I considered the presence of water from the start. That was one of the reasons the door isn't on top. And I understand your idea, certainly.
I must keep the costs down. Maybe a small bead of silicon rubber on it would work, but then there is an implied water tightness. I wonder about the assembly finally becomes too expensive to make.
There must be heavy duty ziplock bags available, my toolkit on my BMW comes inside one.
The first one is ready to ship. These will be $225.

I understand keeping costs down. Zip locks are a good alternative.
I am looking forward to the production of the rear master cylinder cover. That's something I will consider buying.

Maybe someone here can verify this, the front caliper guard will have to be different, between the '07 and '09?
Please contact me here for now, I'm re-tooling the website.
Thanks,
Bake

I have one of Bake's 1.1 gallon tanks and can vouch for the durability of his products. It survived the 2009 Los Angeles to Barstow to Las Vegas dual sport ride, and also a three day solo trip along the old Mojave Road. I was so thorough that I even crash tested the tank a few times... which had nothing to with my riding of course. ;-) I only managed to make a small scratch in the tank.

Thanks, Brendan.
It's great hearing the 1.1 has been successful in the desert terrain. The 1.1 tank and my new Dakar skidplate were developed with the desert rider in mind.
