Pricey, but they still look sharp after 5+ years.

here are some Jarfar bags on my bike, got from amazon for $60 bucks, but had to make my own brackets, which took some doing, hammer, sawsall, bend here, drill a hole there. . . paint black so they don't rust (do this the first time)

oh yeah, you have to move the turn signals, there's plenty of wire, but much much better ways to make a bracket for them than how I did it

Here's my stock (almost) Suzuki bags. They're not bad, a little small, but real good at keeping the rain out. My only problem was when it got cold, the straps started to crack where I buckled the straps. Quick fix, sandwich the strap with some scrap leather; looks snazzy too! :D

Saddlemen Large "Drifter". Ordered from DennisKirk, part #504318. I went with the Large that was recommended, but I think the Medium would have been fine too.
(Orig price $150.99, current closeout price $86.06) Somehow I got them for $37.75. Never figured that one out!

No name bags from a local surplus store, made in Pakistan. About $100. Originally designed as zip-off bags, now mounted on ghost brackets I fabricated. 8-)

Homemade supports, made from steel round rod. 1/8" I think? Shaped them just like the expensive ones.

Originally for my Triumph Bonneville -- they're too small for the Bonnie, but just right for the Savage!
