Saddlebags- Hmm. what's in the garage?
06/04/12 at 11:09:20
 
I've been wanting some small saddlebags to carry lunch and extra gloves, maybe hold my zip out jacket liner.  It's not unusual to have 40+ degree temp changes from morning to afternoon here in Montana.  Since I'm a cheap SOB even $130 seemed too much.  Then I remembered the Wolfman tank panniers I had for my now departed dirt bike.  There are small loops on each side of the bag and I could use the existing straps to attach to the turn signals and upper shock mount plus over the seat straps to support them. Since I won't be carrying anything heavier I think they will do just fine.  Cost = $0.

Those look like a perfect fit!
Are they stiff enough not to hit the rear tire?

They are just heavy fabric but since they are tied into the turn signals and shock mount I don't think they will swing in enough to hit the tire.

I put them on and thought they looked like they were made for this app.

Careful of those turn signals, they're as fragile as an egg.
