I'm looking for a tank bag for F800GS... Are Wolfman any good?

[KTM Deano]

I'm looking for a smallish tank bag for an F800GS. Had Enduristan in the past but recently been looking at the Wolfman range. Anyone got any experience of these?

I've got the Touratech one up for grabs if you fancy it?

They don't come with many frills for the price, but instead are very well made.

I've had tank panniers on the bike for about 18 months, storing my waterproofs / water bottle / locks / occasional shopping run etc. I use the bike daily & they have held up brilliantly, bit of a clean & could almost pass them off as new (thumbs)

Dean, I know you said small and I know you mentioned Wolfman....but I use a Givi tank bag that's made specifically for the GS800. It has a frame that fits to the GS's via the existing top panel fixing holes, the bag then clips to this.
It's mega easy to fit then remove. But it's really good.
It's sturdy and well designed....but it's not got a cool "Adventure" name

Wolfman gears top notch and built to last in accordance to the price tag. I've got one of their small tank bags not sure if it's the enduro or similar but I could find out. Anyway it fits my f8gs o.k, you lose a bit of the internal due to the shape of the top panel but it's still big enough for phone/wallet etc

Which model Givi bag is that Steve?

Yep got a Wolfman tank bag. It's an expandable one, and as others have said, really good quality. I think their website advises which bags suit which bikes. Having said that, my bike wasn't listed, so I went to a supplier, tried several on the bike and got the most suitable. I'm very pleased!

I have a Wolfmann Rainier tankbag with about 55,000 miles on it. Has faded slightly but shows very little general wear and tear. Currently using it in Colombia on my Tiger 800XC on our RTW trip . Highly recommended and I'll buy another when/if this one eventually packs up.

I have the Wolfman Expedition tank bag that I use on the F800GS and other bikes.

While it looks to be made from quality materials and it hasn't fallen apart, I wouldn't recommend this bag as it's a faff to get into it (drawstring and clips), isn't waterproof per the original claim and was expensive for what it is.

I only persevere with it because it cost so much! :unsure:

I now note that Wolfman claim to this bag to be only "water resistant." Perhaps one of their other models is more suitable and waterproof?
