I am very pleased with this tailbag.  It has a clean look on the bike, secure attachment, quick release and plenty of cargo space.  

Installation

Installation was a bit perplexing at first since the straps do not have hooks, they have loops so I had to use some creativity to fasten the bag to the bike.  Each bike will be different, it should be no problem installing on a sportbike passenger seat.   The bag comes with extra padding for the straps and the bottom of the bag to protect your bike.

Pros

• Quick release straps so you don't need to remove everything to get the bag off at quick stops.
• The bag keeps it shape when empty.
• Nice interior straps and compartments for storage, so your stuff stays organized.
• Comfortable carrying handle.
• Extra padding so the straps won't damage your bike.

Cons

• The instructions do not adequately describe installation and the extra pieces,  its a guessing game.
• No exterior pockets.   A small one for quick access items would be handy.

Plenty of room, and nice compartments on the inside.

Spare pads I didn't need for my installation

I would definitely recommend this bag if you are looking for motorcycle luggage for your short day trips.  It is good looking, well constructed and just the right size.

Quick Update:  The bag has been great, the rain cover it comes with, not so much.   If blew off and was lost after a few minutes of riding in the rain.  I don't what they were thinking, it was a very loose fit.
