I've had a few people email/PM me about the MotoFizz bag and how it mounts to the bike, so I snapped a few pics to show how I have it set up in order to help.
The bag came with straps for mounting to the bike. The problem I had was that the instructions are in Italian, so I had to kind of guess as to how best to secure the bag to the bike.
Here's the straps positioned around the rear seat:

The front straps are pretty easy to see. They simply attach to the grab rails:

The rear straps attach underneath the trunk support:

A closer view of the under-trunk straps:

The straps will secure to anything. There's a look on one end, with the other end being a catch to connect back to the bag. I simply loop the strap around a mount point, running the catch through the loop at the end of the strap to secure it to the mount point. The length of the straps can be adjusted, so I start with the rear straps to get the bag snugged against the trunk, then tighten the front straps simply to hold the bag in place.
Hope this helps.
