Seriously, you think someone would sell a tank bag that would potentially scratch your paint? Ive had 3 tank bags so far and never had a problem.
Intentionally, no. But if anything gets between the bag and the tank, and the bag gets slid across the tank for any reason, it'll probably scratch it. A bag with little or no gaps between the magnets might be better for preventing stuff from getting under them. I use mine daily, maybe it's just a case of the law of averages working aginst me.
