Anybody know who owns (or built?) this turbo Monster 900?

I've never seen this bike before, but it sounds like it's got an interesting history...

He was pontificating on the main board in the tech section for a while about turbos but I don't remember seeing him on MADDOG. He used the handle Turbo Tim like in the ad.

Oh yeah, I remember now....

While we're on the topic of opinions, do you think this would be a good buy?

I don't have a tank bag, and I think I would prefer this to a tank bag anyway...

I haven't looked at the Nelson-Rigg stuff so can't really say about quality of construction. It looks a lot like the Humpback tail/tank bags I have in both size and shape and they are very functional.

I CAN say that the Oxford Humpback stuff is way nice and well constructed, but it's also almost 3 times that $50 price.

I'm sure it is pretty good and at 50 bucks what the heck.

The tail pack is slightly less convenient than a tank bag and I actually really like the tank bag on there. A little wind block and a place to lay down on long hauls. I does not bother me unless I'm REALLY getting aggressive and I shouldn't be doin' that on the street anywhooo...
