    You got it, it mounts in two ways there is a collar which goes under and through the steering. That fastens itself with velcro and also has a strip of velcro that is exposed. The you attach the bag to that so if you need to get into the glove box you just rip it up and access the box. There are 2 little stick squares that attach to the tank but that's for stability but it's not going anywhere once you have that collar on. PM me your address I'll drop it in the mail tomorrow, even if it doesn't work out pass it on. Don't ever think you're taking advantage of your vet status, how do you repay someone who sacrifices their life for others? I think the scales are way in your favor.

    That's the loop that goes around and under the ignition key, there is space because I tried it.

    I don't want any money for it and I'll pay for shipping, it just needs a good home. If anyone truly has a need for it send me a PM, veterans move to the front of the line, disabled vet just give me your address. I think that's fair enough.

    Far from it, but I do whatever I can for the real ones. As it may appear on the forum I'm a sarcastic prick, which I am, but when it comes to veterans I'm a big fluffy teddy bear.

    Don't tell that to a few of your "admirers" here.

    One's bark is generally a lot harsher than their bite, especially on a forum.
    Just based on this thread alone, I'm sure you've gained a whole lot of street cred.

    The first step to recovery is to admit you have a problem, so shut your pie hole . See how I did that.

    Why do dogs lick themselves?
    Because they can!

    Apes?
    Don't know. Maybe? tax?

    Birds?
    For sure not.

    Haven't seen your friend motoman on here lately. I thought maybe you sent the Hopnel tank bag to him as a peace offering.
