Does anyone know where to get the hard luggage saddle bags that are shown on the photos in "members galleries", page 5, second down from left. It has 2 silver wings on it. Thanks for the help.

Danny, those bags are BB Reproductions made in PA, USA. I think they're really sharp! If I had found them before I installed my Saddlemen bags I probably would have gotten them. Good luck!

These are great bags. I love mine. They supply these with heavy duty brackets. The bags are held onto the brackets via 2 larger pins with clips. Also held inside with 2 clips on each side per bag. They do come off easily enough but the brackets are bolted on. Very strong setup.

I did have one other question. I missed the Portland event when you could try out every Triumph available. I've had crotch rockets and 2 BMW bikes in the past. I'm looking at the speedmaster because at 6'-4", my knees can't take the bend in normal bikes. How is the long runs with this position? Is the butt numbness on par with regular upright possition? I usually went 150 miles fine, got gas, and was fine for another 150.

Dave, I'm 6'2" and I find the Speedmaster is very comfortable. Try it on for size. At the Pocono Raid I was on & off the Speedy all day, no problem. The touring seat is an improvement over the stock, especially if you plan on riding 2-up. I just picked up the sheepskin buttpads from www.alaskaleather.com and that should provide even more cushion. Good luck!

I found these a few days ago too. Has anyone seen these Tsukayu bags yet or better yet have them? I think I'm ready to order a set.
Opinions? What do you think of the leather wrapped ones? I think I'm leaning toward shiny black.
