Best tank bag I've ever had has been Enduristan.
enduristan.co.uk
They're strap fastened, not magnetic. Not sure if they'd fit the Rocket but they're semi-soft flexible bags so I'm sure it would be doable with Rock straps.
Quality bags aren't cheap I'm afraid. Best thing about Enduristan is they're 100% externally waterproof. No rain cover or waterproof liner required. I think they're good looking and they come in a range of sizes.
And it's a very small detail, but I like the fact they have a bright red lining so when you open them you can see to find things.
I've had one for years on my KTM and it's been exceptional.

so you want him to transform a Gucci backpack? fun goes!
To come back to the post of Gimlet I agree with you, the Enduristan brand is absolutely great. I have a handlebar bag on my HVA 450 FE and it does its job well!

One thing for the tank top bag consideration is sun and phone. I put my phone inside the tank bag vs it being on handlebars. This helps my expensive phone to be kept from being blown away and not break the camera in it with road vibration.
When riding in the sun, I am in S. Florida, the black bag gets hot inside. In addition, I am running wireless Android-Auto from my phone, and my phone does do a slight CPU workout. But even if it didn't, the bag can still heat up so much, at times the phone would display that it is shutting down due to reached temperature. I have to open zippers slightly to allow some air exchange. In the top clear layer pocket where a phone would usually go, I have put a paper map. Not that I really need a map, it is just good at being not black as the pocket itself, reflecting some sun away, preventing the top of the bag heating faster. Plus, a map kind of does not look out of place. Maybe I look like a tourist, I donno.

Except the tank bag goes the other way...So, if you buy into Triumph, this is how it would all look like:
Best tank bag I've ever had has been Enduristan.

I have to admit that I had never heard of them. They look good !
Good grief !..... One of the three main UK dealers for them, is based about 8 miles away from where I live......Well I never.....
....and they must be serious about the whole subject of travel & luggage.....it's the first time i've seen an 'own brand' product for lubricating your zips !
I can imagine the conversation with custom officials......'Yes...it's for lubricating my zip......honest ! '

Enduristan is seriously good kit. Virtually indestructable and completely waterproof on the outside, thanks to laminated construction. Well worth a look. Made in Switzerland.I have to admit that I had never heard of them. They look good !

As well as the tank bag I also have a pair of 20L roll bags which I use as panniers with a harness. I also have a 60 L KTM branded roll bag (basically rebadged Givi), which to be fair has been very good and completely waterproof for years, but next to the Enduristan bags the weight and build quality looks and feels pound shop in comparison.
