I bought this bagster for £30 with the intention of dyeing it black (they are £100+ new) but I'm not sure if I want to now I've seen it.

Marmite, I guess, you either love it or hate it...

What say you? Do you love or hate it? :-?

'orrible, my blade came with one, i flogged it to a bagster dealer in Swindon. Practical, but add nothing to the look of a bike.

Yup, but that's why I bought it Mitch lol, because I wanted one. Given the choices then, black or yellow? (not none lol) ;D

I quite like it in yellow and I am sure if you tried to dye it, it would look crap.

If considering fitting mods to a bike, which are designed to improve practicality, enhancing its aesthetic appearance should not be a primary objective. :D ;)

What Mark said really ;D

lmao Ken, Mark DOES have one of them, which I constantly referred to as GAY during my training with him, which is why he's now getting his own back. ;D (I didn't really think it was gay, I just like teasing him because he bites eeeeevvvvverrrry time)

I always fit 'em to my bikes ... means no scratches when using tank bags, which is a big plus - also, for those with plastic tanks it means you can actually *use* a tank bag, which is nice.

Personally, I hate it when these things aren't colour coordinated - but that's probably my OCD kicking in - a good friend of mine had a green VFR with a black cover - for him it was all about the practicality - for me, it's half and half - the practicality is great but it has to look right too ...

Black :D
