- May 15, 2016, 15:14:33 PMThe Nomad bags definitely look good and they could be painted a 2 tone to match a 2 tone Drifter without too much trouble.
The National Cycle Cruiserliner Saddlebags bambam posted are great bags, I have a set with cut outs for signals on my Honda Shadow. Lots of room in those. Two good choices.

Re getting them closer to the bike see pixie attached. But I think the space is quite a bit tighter / smaller than the impression the photo gives.
I got lucky and got a set of new bags from ebay - I only had to buy the Kawa parts new... It is a bit expensive - but if you try to get it done 'perfectly' you end up paying just as much if not more .... plus its virtually hasslefree lol

- May 05, 2016, 06:03:01 AMThat's a really nice bike Mak. What material are the Nomad bags made of, ABS? I wonder if they could be modified to fit closer to the bike. Like cut out a corner for the shock?
