I went by to get the power ring and gps installed but the main dude that works and knows everything about the install wasn't there. He was in the hospital waking up from surgery. speedy recovery to him...

I did however pick up the gps mount and installed that.
super easy. It's just running off of the battery for now.
the bracket takes a RAM ball mount and then you can use your RAM cradle. here's a couple of pictures; it works like a charm!
I set it up so with a slight look down I can see the gps and then with small glance up I can l see my entire dash/speedo console on the bike. perfect.

btw I noticed my speedo is out by a couple kph's it reads 62kph when my gps reads 60kph. not too bad.

and the whole thing is wheelie proof.

Hi
On my Z750 I had the Bagster Tank cover and now on my Z1000 I bought a universal kit from bagster to fit my clip on bag.
Bagster - Easy (universal fitting)

Isn't so expensive like this bag that you show us.

Anyone have the bagster tank cover on a 2010 or 2011 Z1000? Never saw one!
Thanks

Cool concept...I like the 7L bag myself. I'm not sure if Bags Connection makes these but it was on the same site...these are some slick saddle bags and mounts in my opinion.

I have used both Bagsconnection and Cortech's Dryver systems. Similar approach - gas cap mounted ring and option to Hang GPS on front of bag. Definitely nice to have some space between your tank and your bag.

I just don't like it on my tank. It's a pain when filling up that why I went with the rear soft bags and tail pack
