Would it work with a BMW G650GS? Also, how strong are the magnets?

Magnets are strong enough to hold the bag without strapping it down. I have a Harley but the shape of the bag I bet it would fit just about anything.

I own the same bike. Firstly, the magnetic version won't work because of the plastic faux tank on the bike. Secondly, I have a 17 liter tank bag from another maker. it is too large and is often in the way, except for pure during highway use. My other bag is narrower than this one but still beeps my horn or cuts my engine when the handlebars are turned far. I wouldn't recommend a tank bag any wider than 9"s.

The magnets are strong, provided the tank is flat enough. I did find that it is a little too long on my Ducati 900SS. If I left it in the position I initially had it in the bag interferred with my riding position, causing neck pain. But pushing it forward meant the magnets could not get as solid a purchase - the 900 has a hump at the front of the tank, so it is not totally flat. I still like the bag, but I may get a seat bag before my next trip.

Don't know about BMW. I'm using it on a Harley Dyna T-Sport with straps. No idea about the magnets. It's a great bag though, no problems with it.

I would recommend a larger magnet. These are very strong for their size. But, that size is very small. You may be able to use several of these to accomplish your goal.

The magnet is strong enough to keep all my pins in it without falling out but it's not so strong that I can't grab them. I think it is designed for your application!

I've not tested that, but I assume the magnets will be under your bike, and your cell will be in your pocket, about 4 feet or more apart? If so, you won't have a problem, I've used my cell with the magnets on the table in front of me, less than 2' away, without any interference. Let me know if it triggers the lights, I may try that too. Ride safe!

It will fit the 2013 G650GS, It mounts to the tail rack. It slides on then you strap it down.

It's a very strong magnet that will stick in both directions. I just tried it with a Glock 19 and empty clip and yes it is strong enough, and did not slip. Not sure with a full clip.

I have my huge car key, 2 house keys, 2 key rings, my car fob thing, and two fitness center key fob things and it works just fine. I did change out one of the key rings to one of the ones they send with the item because they are much better for magnetization. My normal key ring is good, but the ones that come with it are much stronger. :)

Second question regarding this. I think it would, but I have an iPhone6. I am using the thinner and smaller circular piece of metal. I think that might work, if not, then the thicker and larger piece of metal should work for sure. The magnet is pretty strong.

Good question. I will conduct an experiment and let you know. I don't know how strong these are in quantitative terms but they are pretty damn strong for such tiny magnets.

I can tell you the magnet is very strong. We, however, have not been able to use ours (I bought 6), because the peel off adhesive will not stick to our dashboards. I was told to clean the spot with alcohol but haven't done that yet.

I think they would be very strong. I only have 1 of these magnets, and it is very powerful. If I stick it to a metal door jam or metal pipe, it is EXTREMELY difficult to remove. I have placed a metal file on top of a 3/4" thick c-top and with the magnet on the underside of the top it moves the file easily. I've also stuck it to my 24' tape measure hanging on my jean pocket and then stuck my 18 volt Hitachi cordless drill to "It". Just examples of how powerful this magnet is. I use it to find metal studs in the wall for installing cabinets in the commercial field, and absolutely love it. I don't know if this helps you but with the 2 magnets pulling toward each other on the 1" glass with the pad between, I think it would work.

There are two different size pins in the G35 and it will work on both of those. I have to assume that it will work with most models as they seem to standardize when possible.

It should work on any wheel that operates like a bike wheel, as long as there is a spoke to place the small magnet sensor this it should work.

I don't know about the magnets or the garmin gsc but it might help to know that this unit has to be installed on the back tire in order to take advantage of the cadence sensor that attaches to the pedal. The magnet is also super simple to install, no screw drivers you just twist it into place.

Strong magnet shouldn't be a problem. I anchored mine at the bottom with extra strength Velcro. Love it may get a second!

I'm afraid it depends on the strength of the magnet. A decent magnet should.

Ken, there is a polarized side that is extremely strong. It will work under a dashboard if you can mount it. On each side of the magnet face there are two places for you to use screws or small bolts. The housing is sturdy and I think you will be happy with it. Again the magnet is very strong.
