OK, this will be a little convoluted but this is what I use. I like the Hepco Becker Tank ring set up because it has the legs with the magnets
that come back off the gas cap area to shift the tank bag back onto the sloped portion of the tank. I find the area above the gas cap area
too small for a tank bag and for me my choices were touching the bars - just too congested. So I went with HB and the DayPack 2.0. I used
that for about 2-3 years but ultimately didn't like the bag because when unzipped the bottom portion wasn't very deep, especially with the room
the magnet plate took out of the bottom, so when unzipped your stuff would be prone to tumble out. I also wanted a tank bag that had separate
compartments rather than one space. I wanted a small bag for absolute essentials, and if I need to carry more I use a tail bag. I found what
I wanted in the Oxford Mini Magnetic bag. It has two small side zippered areas and a center zippered portion with a small "map" pocket on the
center section. I use the left side pocket for my wallet - so easy for gas stops. Use the left side pocket for kickstand plate and small air gauge.
Center is big enough for maps (yes, I still use to augment my phone), balaclava, small water bottle, sunglasses, snacks. This is a small bag,
which is what I wanted. I used the magnetic base plate from the HB DayPack 2.0 and transferred it to the Oxford Magnetic Mini. This arrangement
is absolutely what I wanted out of a tank bag. The Oxford bag is very convenient to pop off and take with you into restaurant or wherever because
it is not bulky. I wouldn't say the bag is the greatest quality, but it has been the most user friendly set up I have found after a little work to get there.
Of course I had to sacrifice the DayPack 2.0 to get the magnetic plate, but I got 3 years out of it. Probably not a great option for a new purchase to buy
a bag and then sacrifice it for the magnetic plate. Doubt you can buy just the plate.
