The bag has arrived and fits very nicely! I haven't figured out how to tie it down yet, but it fits tightly enough that I doubt I would have a problem keeping it secure by just putting it in position. It has 3 flaps that have rubber on them to keep it from moving. I love the fact that it has a clear window with a pouch to place my GPS in, and it has a way for me to run a power cable to the GPS unit. I am really impressed with this bag, especially for the price.

Good Mel! I agree with Ya! it's a great buy for a decent bag. Did you get the hi-viz? We have all winter to figure out how to anchor them (if we want to) and where. No problem.
I got my new 6" Garmin Nuvi LMTHD the other day, I will try it in the zipped vinyl pocket/window. My corrupted 5" fit fine with a bit of room around it, so I think the 6" will fit spot on.

Yes, i boutght the hi-viz one so that i can see it if it falls off or someone takes it. It also helps in the side vizability area. Black would have blended better, but i like the hi-viz. I have a tailbbox as well, sso if we go on long daytrips we can carry all sorts of stufrv. I waas thinking about getting a rain suit and puttintg it in the bag. That way, if we get caught in thee rain i can pull over under cover somewhere and quickly change.

Good idea with rain gear! Hi-vis always a plus (imo)

I am looking at both of these tunnel bags.... how well do they fit, and is there a benefit to the give which costs over 3X more?
Of course the Givi looks really nice, and seems to fit nice and snug, but is the mean green bag an even better fit?

^^ Another Great Pic!!
by golly Mike that's another great pic, a Super shot!
It's not often I see a photo that can be instantly visualized as a jigsaw puzzle! This shot would make a Great puzzle! Okay, so I dig puzzles, they relax me and they challenge me. I'm actually quite good at putting the odd shapes together. Biggest I "finished" was 5,000 pieces.
Can you see your pic as a puzzle?
Alright, I'll move on
To those interested, here's a heads up,
The two different "CycleCase" tunnel bags seen and discussed were purchased awhile ago. Back then, they were going on closeout. I believe none are available now. But...You can give it a go and Search the web for a few stragglers or keep an eye out on Ebay (and similar self selling websites).
I don't know much about the other bags discussed, so let's hope those members drop in and share

poor fellow, what happened to him?

That is priceless! You pointed that out once before last year.
I have since corrected the decals.
