Default Recomendations on a tank bag?

2009 KLX250

I saw that little Joe Rocket Manta bag, it looked like it might fit? Do you all have any tank bags that are sure things for this bike. The one issue I see is that the steel tank is mostly hidden under the plastic covers, so the magnetic bag does not have many options to fit to the tank.

Any photos of your bike with the tank bag would be great!

Wolfman Enduro. The shape of the tank does take away little bit of the interior volume. Straps onto the tank. Got mine from a member here.

Another vote for the Wolfman Enduro. The shape of dual sport tanks don't lend themselves to tank bags meant for street bike.

Does this go for the Acerbis tank also? I'm assuming so but would like to know if otherwise.

Dang. I wish I had known about the Wolfman Enduro before I dropped the coin on the rear rack and bag for me. That's a nice size bag and it would be what I need it for.

For those with the Enduro, does it block the gauge display when sitting?

That would be my only concern.

Thanks for any info.

Default Where to buy Wolfman?

I plan on buying a Wolfman Enduro too. They seem hard to find though. You can order directly from the Wolfman site but I found it a bit cheaper at www.motostrano.com. Anyone have other suggestions? None of my local bike shops carry it.

NO! It doesn't.
