Also-I think you need to caugh up some info on the flags you have, and the mounts-price, where from, and how long do they last-thanks

Thanks for the link. I already have a touring pack like yours but a different brand I'm sure. Those are all basically the same anyway from what I've seen. I was looking at the River Roads but was unsure as to whether they'd fit or not. DO they fit OK and not rub up against the rear lights or the passenger foot pegs? I alread have a sissy bar bag from River Road and I like it a lot.

The flags and mounts are from The Pro Pad. The ones I have on there now are actually made for the Kuryakyn Goldwing Flat Luggage Rack. My luggage rack is the fancy OEM one but is the same thickness as the Kuryakyn Luggage Rack. I paid $45 a piece and they come with a choice of different highway flags. The flags are called highway flags because they will NOT fry if kept on the bike while on the highway and I can tell you from experience, they won't. I have the License Plate Bar Flag Mounts on my Honda Reflex for almost four years and never took the flags off unless I needed the extra space (rarely) and I just sold the old set of two on eBay (with extra flag) for $46. These cost me $60 a piece and was well worth the cost in my opinion. The ones I have now are just as good. I just wish I could have mounted them to the sissy bar instead because if I have to put my touring pack on the luggage rack (most of the time it goes on the passenger seat) I have to take the flags off. The mounts can stay on though. There's a small allen key that can be loosed to remove the flag pole. I plan on getting 13" poles and 10" flags soon because I'm a PGR member and I think they'd look better when on an escort mission.

I've got the Kururken Gran Touring XL bags.. I love them, they fit my backpack and my full face, but it makes getting to the passenger pegs difficult. My bike is in pieces right now.

The only saddle bags I saw on Kururken's site were these:Granthrow-Over Saddlebags

They look really good though but are a little too much for me cost-wise. I like all the little pockets they say are inside but I'm sure, just like in camera bags, those dividers can be a pain in the a$$. If the ones you have are different, can you post the URL?
