So I finally landed a savage, or s40 I guess. It completely broke me, and I probably paid 100-200 dollars too much for it, but I was sick of waiting and didn't wanna run the guy off by asking him for more price drop. Paid 3300 for an '05 with a windshield and sissy bar and 1,700 miles.
Had never ridden a motorcycle before last night. I had to go to oklahoma (I live in arkansas) and right when I got there it started storming right west of us, moving east. So, as it was getting dark and a storm coming, had to figure out how to ride the bike then immediately take it on the turnpike for the long haul back home. Then I had to take a turny backroad all the way to my house in the dark. That was a crazy and scary experience, and today I didn't even get to ride my bike because it rained.
Anyway, since I am now broke, does anyone have any suggestions for making some REAL cheap throwover saddlebags? Is there any danger in just making some ghetto bags for a little while? (like will they get caught in the wheel or blow around too much if I don't give them a hard back?) I really know nothing about saddlebags other than that I cannot pay very much for them, but need them very much.
