I am going back to the shop to show the poor fit at some stage (it is only 25 mins from me.). Unfortunately it is the best option thus far. It is just a poor fit around the edges and filler and rear strap angle.
If you need help, there is advice on this forum re: Heated grips, airhorn, GPS mount, fender extender, rad guard, screens by the zillion, rear hugger, extra access sockets, locat of access wires, extra fuses, etc, etc. IMHO essential to fit fender ext, rear hugg, heated grips and screen.
Fred Harmons pages are essential reading.

Sooty thinks Tiger bag much more comfortable
The rear straps pull the cover forward. They should be sewn on farther forward to pull against the front straps.
The vinyl material should, IMHO, follow the edge of the panel. It seems to follow some arbitary line of its own at the front and down the side. The circular filler portion clamps under the "plastic oven" but doesn't lie down flat. This is shown before I fitted it fully.
The part around the filler cap, just wont go flat. It may improve when sun has beaten down on it.
All in all: Disappointing.
