- July 02, 2014, 16:00:44 PM Well testpilot is right to a point. But personally I like them but then I am not into the studs and chrome stuff so the plain look is what I like. It also depends on what you are going to be using the bags for and how much kit you have to transport, so big and bulky might be the way to go.
But that is right you have the sissy bar and luggage rack so you can make it look your way.
Which ferry is that your on, the Wolfe Island, Amherst or Lake on the Mountain one?

- July 02, 2014, 15:23:25 PMI have come to believe they are fugly, that being said they are quite roomy and will do for this summer until I strip the bike down in the winter and get her the way i want. The new sissy bar and luggage rack make them look less like a sore thumb. Thanks for the honest feedback test, I actually do appreciate it.

My honest opinion? They look plain, drab, out of place, cheap. I say send 'em back and get something else.New bags, still not sure, any thoughts?

- June 27, 2014, 21:04:20 PMWould like to get them lower but will have to fab a different bracket to do it, I'm right at the very edge of the bag now.

But if you need luggage space it's a good way to go. With the large fender in front you sure can put big bags at the rear and the bike will still look balance......but I like to show off my big round rear end
