[QUOTE="RBEmerson, post: 1399468, member: 91458"] You've hit on one of my two reasons for being uncomfortable about magnetic mounts. The other is potential damage to the paint, as the bag mounts are pressed against the tank by the magnets. Someone suggested using painter's tape, which is reasonable, to limit damage. I guess strap mounts might also get to paint, except the strap-on bag from my last bike, an '03, showed no obvious damage. 17+ plus years of use suggests that at least that bag didn't damage the tank's paint. [I]Assuming the material against the paint is soft enough[/I]. [/QUOTE]
