My Tsukayu Strong Hardbags arrived last Friday and are now fitted. What a quality act. From the actual product down to the sales and delivery process. I'm still getting use to their size but am extremely impressed by the high quality of the bags and the fitting kit supplied.  My 3 year old grand daughter reckons they're pretty good as well.

Looks great!
The rear pegs are practically useless in the OEM location with the bags, however. As you run a solo setup anyway, you might want to consider removing them.

Did you get the ones with the built in turn signals? If so, which way did you run your wiring?

And they're so much cheaper than if Kuryakyn had made them. More than Leatherlykes but I think they look way better.

Thanks guys. I'm also beginning to wonder what the appearance would be like if I remove those rear footpeg hangers seeing I don't use them anyway as a solo set-up. I guess I'll just have to take them off and see. Plus those bags do add a bit more weight to the bike which has certainly improved the ride for some reason. No lights in the bags I ordered as I'm pretty happy with the OEM set-up with lights & indocators anyway. These bags have certainly given my bike a big rear end so I have to keep reminding myself there is no more sneaking up between the lines of cars when I come to a set of lights

I use the rear pegs on mine as a secondary foot position.

Two artificial knees mean that position for me is right out of the question unfortunately. Have any of you guys got options or pics of alternatives for not having rear pegs & hangers? TIA John Q

I can't use the stock passenger pegs either, bad knees and morbid obesity. However, these are da bomb yo...

Thanks for the tips & pics. It's given me some good ideas so it looks like I might be putting my fabrication skills to the test to come up with a suitable one-off that will give me a nice clean look & a bit of bling once the rear pegs & hanger are removed.
