I think they look pretty good(if i do say so myself). Took a while to mount them. They are not really high quality but they look okay. Here's a pic.

I like that they have lights on them so you dont have to deal with a signal relocation mod. match the style of your bike really well.

Strafford, I got them from http://www.mutazu.com/ They were $115 plus $29 for mounting brackets and $30 for shipping for a total of $174. Thats alot cheaper than any other hard bags I've seen, plus they have several different sizes and styles. Mine are the "LN" model.

Ed, they were not to hard to mount once I figured out how I was gonna do it. I used the mounting brackets that came with the bags(extra cost).

I think he'll pull it out when theres no more snow on the ground.

Looking at the pic makes me wish I was living in SC (near my brother). He's already got his tomatoe plants in. I have to wait at least until mothers day (usually no frost after then).

I can't imagine seeing snow in April any more. Reminds me too much of living in the UP... (Thats Canada-South, eh.)

Everything I say is fully substantiated by my own opinion.
