Yep, I has one. Good fit too.
Don't necessary love the attachment points, but just personal preference

 

[DING-DONG]

You mean like this !



I sent it back because its fit is sh1t and I even asked bagster uk for the pics of the fitting instructions for the straps and I was not impressed with how they secure.

Oh dear! Was it not very secure, or just generally looked crap? Will the BMW tank bag fit with it, or do you HAVE to use the Baglux bag?

 

[DING-DONG]

The way you secure the straps are not very good and due to the tanks shape the cover was not a tight fit around the sides and with the colour of my bike it stood out like a sore thumb ! Regarding your bm bag why not I'm sure you can still use the bm bag ie using the cover to protect the tank only, alternative you have to buy a bagster bag.

Buy it than if your not happy send it back for a full refund.

That dinky dingy dong is a grumpy old bastard!
He bitches just about everything I read on here.

There is no fit issues with it, unless he got the Friday afternoon version.
I agree that some of attachment points are not ideal, but no bagster attachment points are. I had a few on different bikes.

I use bags connection bag on mine and it fits good with a ring mounted on the tank.

Is yours the same colour? I'm interested in the black one, but would like to see a picture of it fitted before I part with any money.

 

[OZGSer]

Yes, I have the red one also so can't help you with the colour. I would think the gray used on the sides is the same on all of them. Here are a few pics of mine.

Thanks for the pics. The one on eBay is all black, with black sides, so looks quite good. Is it quite easy to remove when you want to wash the bike? Did you have to remove any panels to attach the fixings?

Fook off i don't moan about everything do i !

Must admit yours fits nice, mine deffo did not and I've had many covers on bikes so no error from my part so maybe mine was a duff one, but like ya said even when it fits the tank the attachment points are sh1t .

You can have them any colour you like under their custom order section.

Not sure how easy the new bike one is to get on and off but the one on the Adv is a pain in the arse to take off.

Time you undo the headstock straps and a couple of fastenings are held by side panel screws but then I don't take it off to wash the bike hmmm don't wash the bike well maybe twice a year it has it wash and polish. Just get a good coat of polish on the tank and its fine.
