I have got one of these bags. Found it to be a good purchase. I took the tank rear pivot bolt out and slid the straps onto it, doing away with the need to feed the straps back through themselves. This way they sit a lot flatter. When not in use i roll the straps up and tuck them under the seat. The front flappy bit stays attached to the tank bolts but has never been a problem, it doesnt flap about in the breeze at all. I will try and post some pics if you want.
