What's a good fitting tank bag?

I'm looking for a small/medium tank bag that will fit well with the sharp drop off of the FZ6R tank and won't interfere with the handlebars turning fully. Any recommendations from what you're using?

Please do a search for this kind of information. We have talked about luggage before. All kinds. Just have to look a little bit. On a side note, I enjoy my Cortech Super 18L Tank bag...

I've been using this one.

Fieldsheer Eiffel 2 Tank Bag - Street Bike - Motorcycle Superstore

I only use the single big bag as it fits my lunch bag, extra visor (when commuting in the winter and it's dark on the way home) and anything else I need to take to work with me. If you don't need that much room, you can just use the very top bag. It's nice and small and zips to the same magnetic base. Make sure if you're going to use a magnetic bag, you put a micro fiber cloth over the tank before you put the bag base on. It will help keep the bag base from scratching your paint.

As do I. The only blemish I can find with the super 18L Cortech is that occasionally I honk my horn inadvertently during U-turns.

I wouldn't mind a pair of Saddle bags to commute to work etc, obviously with the wife on the back they won't be there... Just a thought...

Yes, I did search, and I understand the search feature, but nothing I could find about how different models of Tank bags 'fit' on the FZ6R. I understand why some people on here are constantly reminding people to use the search feature, but for me it's starting to get a little irritating when I'm reminded to do it after having done it looking for something very specific like this. If I was posting a thread for "hey, anyone know anything about luggage options?" I would understand. Sorry, don't mean to be antagonistic, and thanks to everyone for their input and especially the photos . . JMHO . . :)

I would rather see a new thread/inquiry instead of a necro thread revival. Since the last thread on the topic some people have bought new tank bags, some people have owned theirs for longer and have new opinions about them after usage, etc. Search function is cool and useful, but so is a fresh take on things without digging through the search results.

Just got an Icon Primer tank bag today, it fits pretty well, smaller, and got it for 50 bucks
