FAQs

What is the capacity of the tank bag?

The tank bag holds five liters and expands to seven liters when the wedge section is utilized.

Is the top pocket waterproof?

The top pocket is designed to be touchscreen-friendly and can protect devices from light moisture, but it is not fully waterproof. Use the integrated rain cover for protection against heavy rain.

Will this bag fit my motorcycle?

The bag has a tapered fit designed for most cruiser tanks. Its magnetic attachment requires a steel fuel tank. It may not fit tanks made of other materials or those with highly unusual shapes.

How do I clean the tank bag?

Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the bag is dry before storing or using.

Does it come with a rain cover?

Yes, the Nelson-Rigg NR-150 includes an integrated rain cover that is packed in its own storage pouch.

Can I use this bag with a non-steel tank?

No, the magnetic attachment system relies on a steel fuel tank for secure mounting. This bag is not compatible with aluminum, plastic, or composite tanks.

How are the zippers designed to function?

The bag features reverse coil zippers, which help keep dust and dirt out, and high-density rubber zipper pulls that are easy to operate, even when wearing gloves.

Troubleshooting

Bag slides or moves during ride

Ensure the motorcycle's fuel tank is clean, dry, and made of steel. Reposition the bag to ensure all magnets have a firm grip on the tank surface. Check that the tank is not excessively curved where the magnets attach.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Clean the zipper teeth carefully to remove any dirt, dust, or debris. A small amount of silicone lubricant can help improve zipper function. Ensure the zipper pull is not obstructed.

Top pocket does not recognize touchscreen

Ensure the device screen and the inside of the clear pocket are clean and free from smudges. Some thicker screen protectors may reduce sensitivity. Ensure the device is securely placed within the pocket.

Bag does not maintain shape when empty

The bag is designed to hold its shape best when partially or fully loaded. Ensure the internal liner is properly smoothed out. Some flexibility is normal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The tank bag utilizes strong magnets on its base for attachment. Ensure the motorcycle's fuel tank is clean and dry before placing the bag to ensure optimal grip and prevent scratching. Position the bag centrally or as desired, allowing the magnets to fully engage with a steel tank. The tapered fit should naturally conform to most cruiser tanks.

Compatibility: Primarily designed for steel motorcycle fuel tanks due to its magnetic attachment system. It may not be compatible with aluminum, plastic, or composite tanks. The tapered design aims for broad compatibility with cruiser-style motorcycles.

Care: Clean the exterior with a damp cloth. For zippers, periodically clear any dust or debris to ensure smooth operation. Store the integrated rain cover in its pouch when not in use. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the bag is completely dry before storing.
