Bangkok - tank bag for Honda CRF250L.

[shadowofacloud]

 Hi All,

 

 I need to buy a tank bag for a CRF250. Due to seat configuration the ones with magnets won't fit, so it needs to be the one with straps. I've asked in a few shops in the neighborhood (Sukh 71), but none have it. One of the owners suggested I go to the Pratunam market.

 

 Is this market any good for bike accessories? Any other suggestions? Lazada is not an option this time, as I would like to buy it tomorrow.

 

 thanks.

Personally i'd buy a rear carrier, which will enable you to strap a bag onto it - it's not in the way then ....

Already got a rear carrier.

 

I need something small and easily accessible to keep my wallet, phone, camera, water etc. in. I guess I will go for a hip bag for now, as these can be bought everywhere.

Always felt the crossbody type was easier and better than the hip bag.

Saw them in a shop yesterday and wasn't sure... I guess I'll try both designs and see what works best.

I know you said you needed it right now...but if you can't find a good solution order an Ogio one...friend has one on his CRF250L and the magnets hold it on fine

 

Here's a link to Revzilla...but I'm sure you can find them on Evil Bay

Contrary to my earlier doubts, the crossbody bag is really great - thanks for the advice.

 

Got it by accident, really. Went to some kind of a military uniform shop in Nan looking for a hip bag and one of the shoulder bags caught my eye. Tried it on and it stayed on ????. Tested in battle for the last 10 days or so - works great, big enough to fit my bulky dslr and related paraphernalia.

Thanks! I am currently sold on the crossbody bag, but may give it a try at some point.
