Hi Juvecu.money well spent I've been using baglux gear for years without any problems,the one exception being one of the side straps has gone on my sprint st tank harness.got one for the wee but not fitted due to 2 or3 goes at fitting and not looking right,the one on the st was second hand and fitted like a glove the one for the wee is new and stiff so looks like the hairdryer route which is a pita.
When you get yours and fit it  let me know as not many strom owners have this apart from one bloke on VSRI who posted pictures.

Fitment was quite easy, you need to take off the seat and undo the two allen keyed bolts that hold the black plastic side covers on. Then put the tank cover on, there is a strap that you tie around the bottom of the tank near the bolt under the seat. The flap a the top of the tank goes over the black plasting covers there and the two "tails" slide in under the side panels partially. The tow "tails" have a hole at the end, the allen keyed bolt that hold the black side panels need to go through these holes. Next tie the strap around the steering head and put the side covers and seat back on. I fit mine on Saturday, here's a link to a photo album with 3 pictures to show how it looks on the bike.

it helps to stop the perfectly good paint job being ruined, and it's warmer on the legs if you ride all year. :thumb:
