Not bad, but they look a tad on the "modern" side for a cruiser. How much were they, not including the easybrackets?

Yep, thats what I was looking for. Gives the bike an all terrain look. I didnt want to look like a "cruiser" cruiser and be confused with Harleys  Here is the link where I bought them from. http://www.twistedthrottle.com/trade/productview/30/69/I got the glossy lids which cost a little more.

Looks nice. Here's a link to their site. I kind of like the ones with the chrome trim. Givi Monkey Bags

Very Very nice! They will look great if you paint thee covers to match your bike. I agree with Friar John, the price seems very reasonable.

Looks good!! I would mount them a little lower... but that's just me. They'll look sweet blue.

Thanks guys. They can be mounted lower but I wanted the high look. Also, to do that I would have cut the plexiglass around the lock to move it up. I got a paint quote from a guy he said about $80 for both.

Good choice. I have GiVi Voyager soft cases with EasyBrackets and they cost around the same price.
