Sent a pic of the bags on my bike to Tsukayu and they posted it on their site - pretty cool. They have since been painted with some stripes but decent pic of what they look like. http://www.tsukayu.com/Strong%20Triumph%20Speedmaster2.htm

Nice. Both of the LED signals in my bags worked loose within 1000 miles. No big deal, just surprised. Tsukayu now makes a version for EZ brackets also.

Thanks. My LED's are hanging in there. What specifically went wrong with your LED's?

Not sure about the new EZ mount bags, if you look at the Super Glide pics, they look like they are flaring out at the bottom. Don't know if that is fixable. http://www.tsukayu.com/QuickDetachableStrong_SuperGlide.html

Since install, I have not taken mine off. Both functional and they look cool. A bit of a pain at wash time and checking rear tire air pressure.

EZ brackets are flared out a few degree per their design. You would either need to bend them or space the bag. Kinda fugly the way they look.

Doug,
They look good

There are two tiny fastners that hold the LED boards in place within the bag. I had to remove the outer clear covers, reposition the LED boards, & resecure the nuts from within the bags. Fortunately the nuts were inside the bags. The LED's work fine, they just vibrated loose from the mounts. Just something to check for every now & then. If you look behind the carpeted liner where the signals are mounted you'll see what I mean.
