TT VP45 waterproof-ness

[Dick Dastardly]

For those of you in the know, do you regard the TT VP45 tankbag as waterproof, water resistant or neither of the above?

I have one but not used it in the wet yet. I guess one of the things to do is to fit it and go for a spin in the rain......but someone must know. TT claim some vague idea but what's it like in the real world?

Not fully waterproof. i had a damp sweatshirt and other stuff....treat it with some sort of tent waterproofing like nikwax for that extra protection

not waterproof.
its fine for showerproof.
i have used nikwax typer spray to help.
although tankbag section is fine if you have the map cover on.
small sidepockets have nowaterproof zips. sidebags also let in water in a downpour.
so just use small plastic bag liners or showercaps from your b+b

oh and the map pocket is reversible.BUT one side has a none waterproof zip
and the optional raincover isnt so good either.
