Hard Bags for S50 - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

Scott58 · 01-29-2006, 12:32 PM

Does anyone have hard bags on their intruder vs800/S50. I'm looking at these and am wondering how they'll work out.

They look nice. I guess you can relocate the turn signals by buying the ones offered for the bags. To me that's the only drawback.

Good luck!

I want to get hard bags for my M50, I have looked at National Cycle's Cruiseliner Hard Bags and the cheapest price I've seen is $549.00. The Tsukayu's you are looking at, look good too. The Cruiseliners like the Tsukayu's are supposedly fit tight to the bike, which I want.. See 'KnightEnforcer's (another poster) comment, although he said he got them for $80.00 on E-Bay. (Note that on the forum page, your post brought up other previous posts as FYI's, including KnightEnforcers, although did not bring up my recent post on hard bags for the M50)

thanks for the response guys. I have a set of W&M Raptor series on now that can zip on and off which is kind of nice. I'm just looking for a more solid and lockable setup. I'll probably end up getting the patrol model, but still not sure. i want some room but i don't want it to look to out of place. I'm building a cardboard box to their sizes to get a visual on placement and how it will look. never thought about turnsignal relocation. if it comes to that, your right i'll just get the turn signal option on the bags. Thanks again.

This is my bike:

The bags have lots of room, but if I had it to do over again I'd go with the "Patrol" model instead of the "Strong" Tsukayu's customer service is very good. The bags are very good quality and very large too.

Nice bike. I also found these that have a pretty good price. but the tsukayu brand may still win out.

I've looked at the leatherlyke. Their price range is close to $500 also. Are they paintable? What ever ones i decide to get i want them to match the bike color. I understand they are also detachable. That might simplify things a bit. Did you have to relocate your turn signals?

The leatherlykes are not paintable, they are ABS with a faux leather outside finish. They do get very good reviews.
