Does this bag permanently mount to the tank.....or is it just buckled on....I'm looking for a small bag that gets permanently hooked on....either straped around the tank or some kind of locking system....

.....I use the icon urban bag on my SV.....but I also use it as my backpack for school.....and it comes with me wherever I go....

.....I ask because I've had things stolen off my bike.....and I don't want to leave it just sitting on there.....

I have one and love it.  It's perfectly sized for my phone, Ipod wallet and house keys with enough room left for assorts small stuff.

It is a magnetic bag, so no permanent mount.
