Joe Rocket Manta Tank Bag Review

I needed a tank bag for my 2006 Yamaha R6 that wouldn’t mess my paint up, would carry all my small items for traveling, and would stay on when traveling at a “brisk” rate. I read some pretty good reviews around so I went for it. Here are my findings.

1. Good solid construction as is typical for Joe Rocket.

2. Sticks to the bike just fine at 140+ since it is behind the wind screen. I don’t have a double bubble screen.

3. Holds plenty of my crap. I can fit a surprising amount in it.

4. Comes with a water proof cover. I had to use this once and it worked great. The water just beads up and falls off.

5. Comes with a handle so you can carry it with you, rather than donating it to your local thief.

6. It has three pockets. One for a cell/gps, one close to the rider for wallet and sunglasses, and the main compartment which I could easily fit a large Nalgene water bottle, medium sized book, beanie, large camera, and small bag of tools.

7. There is a rubber coating between the magnates and the tank that prevents scratching as long as the surfaces are clean.

8. Looks great!

If I were to complain about one thing it would be that it needs more little pockets. Having individual compartments for stuff would be nice but by no means is a problem.

The Joe Rocket Manta Tank Bag fits on my 2006 Yamaha R6 brilliantly. I purchased mine from tobefast.com for about 55 bucks.

This really is such a excellent resource that you simply are supplying and you give it away for free of charge. I found it on Bing

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Flip Ultra HD. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features. Have you seen anything bad about this Video Camera? Would love your take on this

I mean seriously. Information networks and politicians at all times talk about how we owe these people an excellent debt. If we owe them an amazing debt how about you pay it, you egocentric idiots?

I imply seriously. Information networks and politicians at all times talk about how we owe these people an important debt. If we owe them a great debt how about you pay it, you selfish idiots?

This is probably one of the best mentions of this topic I’ve seen in quite a while. It’s obvious that your knowledge of the subject is deep and this made for a very interesting read.
