ryathis, try tinypic.com, thats what i use, its free, easy, and dont have to make an account if you dont want.

dan, i did the same thing, and for what it is, its not bad. i normaly do 4 days trips, and some times the first and last day is just riding out for the most part. these work good if you have soft things (normally ill pack shirts, socks, and a pair of shoes in them) in them, and dont mind you knee nugging them a bit. when i have used them, it was all street riding, i think easy to medium gravel roads would be cool also, but anything beyond that, personaly, i dont use them, but i have seen people that swear by them and use that to carry tubes, tool, oil, ect.. i also ran the wolfman tank bag at the same time, so if you dont have a problem with running that, i doubt you would have a problem with the tusk (cus i do and only run it on the street). tusk definally had a good idea with this one though, cus you have to remember its ment for atvs.

I've been using the Cortech bag for a couple of years now. No complaints, and in fact even on the roughest trails in the Oregon Desert, it stayed in place.

Basically I tuck it under the seat and then used the supplied velcro to hold it to the back rear plastics, very stable at 60 on the road or going down the trail.

I just bought this same bag yesterday.....being a noob I actually had it placed on the tank the other way, reversed from yours. I reversed it and it does fit a little better. I did notice that if worked pretty well on the back of my tail rack. All the magnets were stuck on the rack and seemed to be really secure. I doubt I'll use it on the rack without securing it with bungees in the event it falls off and I realize it 20 miles down the road.......

Looks good ryathis.Thanks for getting the pics up. I might have to try that. Looks like it's in the way much less back there vs up on the tank.

I have been using a set of Moose Big Horn atv saddle bags. They have been great so far for road travel and fire roads. They also are adjustable so they will also fit nicely on the seat.
