I got me a new tank bag, the Rapid Transit "The Stack" magnetic tank bag.  It's their biggest tank bag (29 liters) but it stays put, and seems to be very well made.  I've been using it the past few weeks.  Very convenient storage compartments throughout, including clear map holder, eye wear compartment, and cell phone pouch that holds your phone right in front of your face so you can see precisely when the old lady calls to nag you to come home.  :D

It comes with backpack straps, shielded holes for drinking bladder tube and headphone wires, not that I care about that.  Zippers seem quite sturdy, and it has a rain cover for when it really pours, as it's rain resistant as-is.  Love it so far.  I think it looks good on the GS too, as far as luggage goes.

Sweet! I have their Recon bag and I like it a lot. It is big enough for my needs most of the time, but every once and a while it would be nice to fit more stuff in there... On my bag, the waterproof cover does its job very well. I've ridden in the pouring rain and never had anything get even the slightest bit damp...

Yup, I believe Fred and I have the same thing the Recon 19. It set me back about $70 and is just the right size for me. If I get a bigger one I'll just put more junk in there. As for the hydration bladder down here in Fl it is a necessity!

How much did it set you back? Also, I have a sunglass case but it will not hold a pair of Oakley half jackets so it holds my ear plugs and oakley sunglass cleaner that works great on shields too. That was $15 with lifetime refills! Oakley has the best customer service any time I need a sunglass cloth they give me one for free I lost one of my nose pieces and instead of having to by the $15 kit the guy gave me a little bag of different color nose pieces and ear socks! I guess their philosophy is if you're gonna spend that much on our product we better stand behind it.
