I bought the tank bag from Aldi's yesterday for $50. It's a winner.
Modular design so you can remove or add bag compartments onto eachother and it sits very firmly with those magnets. The underside of the tank bag is a nice soft leather so I don't have to worry to much about scratching the fuel ...

It's either a tank bag or mounting a rear bracket and attaching a bag to it. I saw that same advert by Aldi for their Tank Bag so will have a look at it tomorrow.

Tank bags

Was looking to fit some sort of bag onto the GPX and have been looking at these magnetic tank bags. Are these tank bags all going to fit a GPX tank? Do they scratch the tank? Who has one?
They seem a nice idea but I keep thinking it will interfere with my reach on the handle bars.
True or untrue?

Thanks for the welcome folks.

It's been fun riding it since I picked it up on Saturday morning. Mind you I'm not looking forward to the three days of supposed showers that the Weather people reckon is going to hit Melbourne as I don't have wet weather riding gear. But come Sunday I'll be back in ...

I think I'm the fourth owner of my 99 GPX 250 and I never received a owners manual. Are they easy enough to download?

Greasings and salivations

G'day all, new GPX-250 owner here and looking to learn about my bike. I'm betting my chances are good that some of you blokes know a thing or two about them... :)
