Naah, sorry, Ive sold the bike & ditched the backpacks. I cut the seperators out, so it was just one big empty bag. I put D rings on the gym bag & sewed a 1/8th piece of ply to the bottom & glued one inside. It stuck out over the tail lite. Im really good with knots & carried parachute cord & secured it when it was loaded, even tho it was securely tied down to the seat in 2 places with the D rings. I also put a flap on the front that wrapped around the seat strap & velcro held it secure there, too. The side bags took some doing to hang them & keep them outta the spokes & allow the swingarm to keep them in place & not rip them. They, too, had inner liners I made to keep them straight, but I didnt sew them in, I woulda gone cross country with that setup & not been afraid it would fail,
