If these newer saddlebags are of the same material quality as the originals, then Triumph can stuff em.



Agreed - High Class Cardboard is more like it. I got a set of the traditional Triumph bags as part of the $1,200 end of year promotion and they are just junk. (They will end up on eBay shortly).

I bought a pair of Sequoia bags from Leatherneck Jim Leatherneck Jim and they are not much more expensive than the Triumph bags. It's the best quality leather I have EVER seen, bar none. Also, Jim was an absolute pleasure to deal with. I bought them with the brackets, but they are available with yokes as well.
