tank bag, need help deciding which one?

[hemi]

got my new bags connection engage sport tank bag today. Haven't mounted it yet, but i ended up mounting the engage bag they sent me by accident bc i liked it so much. Need a little help though, the engage sport is pretty huge, but would be very handy if i need to pick up larger items, but it's also very expensive. I'm actually now considering keeping it for those times when i need the storage, obviously i'm keeping the smaller one bc i already drilled/mounted it. What are your guys opinions, does it look abnormally huge, or should i keep it?

with 15-22 liters of capacity, it will hold a lot of crap!! The smaller engage bag is 7.5 L capacity. Thinkin about keepin the 2 and maybe sell my daypack 2 bag? Here's the daypack 2 TwistedThrottle.com : Bags-Connection "Daypack II" Quick-Lock Tankbag for SW-MOTECH Gascap Mounting System - BCK.TRT.00.020.100. I love these bags, just can't stop buying them

it does look bulky, but if you do any traveling/touring you could use the extra storage. ive got saddle bags, and my next luggage investment will be a tank bag that has that much holding capacity. i like it.

almost ready to mount it up, any more suggestions before it's un-returnable

Be sure to keep it zipped up when not in use. I plan on using this as a reason to buy a new tank bag myself.

well i ended up mounting it, little big but i really like that it will hold quite a bit. Plus i have the smaller bag now i can slap on in a heartbeat for just cruising around, not carrying much at all. Really like the picture hillbilly, might go grab my 90lb yellow lab (dakota), and see if i can stuff his big a** in there haha

Bigger is better

Does having that thing between your arms while riding get in the way? I'm going to buy one today, was just wondering?

I got a Rapid Recon 19 its fine for what i need.
Do you carry spare helmet visor? check and see which one fits.

Looks like the bigger one is just a little wider, so I think you made the right choice.

took about a 50 mile ride this morning, so far i like it. Don't even notice it's there when riding, doesn't get in the way at all or contact my arms. Only issue is if i try to lean into the bike to tuck down at high speeds, the bag of course gets in the way. Not a big deal for me though, bc i rarely lean down and lay on the tank. Of course i got in a hurry and mounted both of them, and can't return either now, so i might be looking to sell the smaller engage bag. The wifey is not pleased at all knowing how much i spent on these two bags

Looks good on there man.
