Are motorbike tank bags worth getting?

I really like the look of tank bags.
the bike I have is an upright tourier and is mostly black except the tank which comes silver as standard.
the tank is scratched up so I was thinking either a black tank bag or a black used tank or maybe even a paint job but I would need the bike ready in a day.
my worry with the bag is will it last and how bad is it in direct sunshine as I assume it heats up unlike a metal tank which would remove the heat more.
how much would a tank cost to be painted?

the bike is a Honda varadero 125cc
thank you

Is this 600cc too much to handle?

I used to ride my 80 then 125 alot when i was younger but I haven't rode a motorcycle in years.

I'm 21 6'5 and 215lbs so i figured i would need a big bike

Why won't my 92 Honda CB750 start?

Hi, I have a 1992 Nighthawk (Honda CB750), that clicks at the starter solenoid instead of actuating the starter motor. It's been sitting for about four months while I tried to fix it, gas tank and carbs drained. I've tried (not in order):

-Replacing the Starter Solenoid and Main fuse (twice, the second time, it had gotten water in it…)
-Replacing the Starter Motor.
-Charging, then replacing the battery (I've checked it before trying to start it, it usually sits just over 14v)
-Removing, cleaning and rebuilding the carbs
-Replacing the battery cables
-Drained the gas and carbs and filled with new gas

Maybe there's a clog in the crankshaft casing or a short in the cables… I don't know, and I'm really in need of advice. Any ideas?
