Look how well those bags follow the fender line. The machinist who modified the brackets for me said; "Wow. It's like they was made for this bike. Oh yeah, I guess I did make them for this bike". Made me laugh.

What a cool way to install hard bags and relocate the blinkers!
Yeah, cool if you like shaken stuff... those hard bags move together with the fender!

- October 05, 2016, 20:43:37 PMThey do, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with the mounts you sold me. I'm very satisfied with what I bought. However, for these particular bags, I need the bracket to extend further down by about 3.5 inches.

- October 05, 2016, 20:06:59 PMwhat do you have to do to the mounts to get those bags attached? They look like they have a flat back to them...

- August 19, 2016, 08:41:07 AMI had a heck of a time finding bags, first I wanted hard bags but couldn't find ones that I could paint 2 tone and have them look right so I settled for soft bags. Looking forward to seeing how these look.

- August 18, 2016, 16:23:00 PMThose look pretty good... I like my 120mm ammo cans though 
Water proof, big enough to hold a 30 pack of beer, cheap and they match with the rough and tough look of my bike.
Post pictures when you get your new bags mounted, I'd love to see them.

I recently decided to go "bagless" (just using a small leather trunk) but can easily be swayed! :-)Just bought https://www.tsukayu.com/Strong.htm last week. I'll let you know how they work out.
