I wonder what are the relative merits of cordura vs leather in
a case like this. Selling point for some plastic cladding
in strategic places, isn't it?
It's not to protect the bike internals from the debris:

Gotta check where the radiator release cap is on yzf
though I'd assume Yamaha engineers are not complete morons
and they have took things like that into consideration.

Naw, you don't start leaking on yourself until your prostate starts
enlarging at about age 55, then it's cold and wet...
