Does what it says on the tin.
I wanted something for an iPhone so I can use it as a satnav.
This bag seems ideal. Bought a battery pack to keep the phone charged so I don’t need a cable trailing anywhere and don’t need to make a hole in the bag.

I bought this to be able to see google maps on my phone while riding. I don’t have Nav 6 on my bike too expensive.
The bag is well made and fits in a good spot in centre of steering. However the Velcro straps are only just long enough to secure it to bars. Have done several long rides with it and it stays in place.
I have one of the new iPhone SE models and to position it in the phone pocket and still connect to power socket I had to make a hole in the bottom of the pouch.
The other compartments of the bag should be really useful for credit cards and passport when touring

Bought as a substitute for overpriced tank bag and gives good additional storage. attachment "wings" could be longer and drives my wife nuts as it obscures her vision of the instruments whilst riding pillion hence stars
Great for the rider... Steve Sharkey on Oct 11, 2018

Really useful additional space since this is my first bike I tour on without a tank bag. I have some old business cards that I write on the reverse of to display any notes in the little window and swap for each leg of a tour. Smaller than I thought but hands never the less. The only down sides are: 1. It’s something else to remove when leaving the bike. 2. My pillion doesn’t like it because it hides the eta on the sat nav for her.

Very useful for keeping essentials to hand. The phone flap is on the 'wrong' side for the charging lead, but it can be fitted inverted which actually puts the unit in a better position, visibility-wise. Slightly pricey for what it is, but useful, none the less.

Great piece of equipment, easy and handy to fit and remove. Kept valuables like phone credit cards etc, just where you need them when touring, yet so easy just to remove and take away with you when leaving the bike. Highly recommended and waterproof . 5*

A good bag but a little tight on an RT, the Velcro wraps could do with another inch and it would be 5 star

I needed this bag urgently for a trip to France and after a quick email to Nippy Normans it was delivered within 2 days. The service was second to none again and the bag is brilliant. Fits well and looks good. It was very handy for loose change, and cc for the tolls and passport and paperwork for the shuttle. Excellent piece of kit, would highly recommend.

Very handy. Better than a tank bag for the RT

Bought this for my 2014 RT LC. Its not listed as fitting this model but fits fine. I found with the bag flap facing the front I can't see the very bottom of the instrument display but I'm short with the seat in low position. I've turned it the other way round and still got it to fit. In this position the cable for the phone pocket is on the correct side for the power outlet and the "touratech" label doesn't reflect in the instruments.

Great product and ideal for storing nic-nacks but fitting my phone,Samsung S5,in the pouch was a bit tight. All said worth getting.

Perfect fit between the bars, doesn't obscure clocks or hinder the ignition key area.
Highly recommended.
Can be removed in seconds and worn on a belt or just carried as a man bag!

Very well made and fits easily, quickly and neatly on the bars without obstructing instruments, etc. Small but ideal for quick access to items such as passports and tickets. There is one main pocket, a slim pocket which is ideal for passport, etc and the flap pocket. The pocket in the lid takes my iPhone 5 and the touch screen still works (but not of course with gloves).
Why not 5 stars. The cable access in the base is just a rubber patch sewn to the material with a plastic patch on the inside - but no hole.To use it requires pocking a hole with a knife point. No very professional. In any case I don't think it would that useful as I need to supply power to my phone which is in the clear flap pocket. The dummy cable entry goes into the main pocket which only provides access to the flap via the pocket zip. Easier just to run a cable direct to the flap.
What to do whehn leaving the bike? It takes about 5 seconds to remove the bag and a vecro tab allows it to be fitted to a belt like a bum bag.
A little pricey for a small bag but useful for touring riders.
