| Hello All After looking at the Suzuki Saddlebags @ $550AUS I decided to look around at what else there was to be had. I ended up looking at some bags that had been sitting in a shop for years because they were $480, when I asked about them the shop owner said they were from the US and he wasn’t going to bring them into the country anymore because the Chinese bags where just too much cheaper at $220. I look at them and they were close to the Suzuki bags in style, but they were just to plain, so I had a really good look at the US type. He said that he would give me 30% off of the US type and at $320 I decided that was the way to go. I think they have just the right amount of silver and the extra stitching really sets them off. I also got a new pair of quilted cold and wet weather pants and a new cover. All up I walked out very happy with a total cost of $520AUS. I haven’t got the bag racks and I don’t think I really need them. What experiences have others had with or without using them? The quick releases made me nervous so I drilled out the centre twist release (tongue) so that a small lock can go through it, problem solved Next week I get the engine guards, cant wait! Cheers |
