Oxford do an expandable tank bag for £29.99
I have one, its £19.99 for the normal one, and a tenner more for the expandable.
Get it.
I have had one now for about 7 months and its been spot on, i have in on the bike 24/7 (it doesnt feel right without it now). It holds the g/f's work bag, top up of oil, top up of brake fluid, spare drink, spare gloves, all my tools on the side pockets, its water proof and comes with 100% waterproof covers with it.
Cant reccomend it enough mate
If i remember rightly, ive told you all this a little while ago?
Its big enough for me to roll my spare bike jacket up, and fit in  ____________________ CBT Aug '03 ... Gilera GSM 50 ... Honda NSR 125 Aug '04 ...

Still using my £6.99 Lidl one actually, It's done a full rally season plus shopping trips plus holding my handbag/chain & padlock/assorted other girlie things on rides and hasn't budged, broken or leaked yet (touch wood).
I can fit 3 lever arch files (foolscap) in it when it's expanded, with room left over.
Pity they only had them in the stores for about an hour really........  ____________________ Sod falling in love, I wanna fall in chocolate.  |

I got this one for a tenner at the tail end show. I've easily managed to fit about 36 cans of beer in it with room left over and you can take the bottom off it to use as a backpack.

Deffinately the best £10 i spent in a long while since its lasted 2 years of daily use up to now and shows no sign of damage. Best bet is keep your eyes open at bike shows for any bargains. |

Have you considered a top box instead? Not trying to be awkward, but i just don't like tank bags, on account of not being able to crouch or see the dials
If it turns out that a bag you buy is less than waterproof, try using nikwax waterproofing spray, it's absolutely fantastic. It's called tent&gear proof, and will keep it 99.9% waterproof. Even if whatever you buy is waterproof, i'd still reccomend it for the peace of mind.
