Hi BugBear as Capt Lou says, cost was the main reason I got these bags, fitted them with easy brackets which does make em stick out a little more than a normal bracket, hadnt intended them to on most of the time, as it is they're on more often than not now (the Missus likes to fill em up!)I've got use to the size now, in fact I dont notice em unless I'm filtering through trafik, when I just take it easy. Although they're ABS, they do take a knock, had a lane changing clown in a cage on his mobile rub his front tyre against one and nearly put me into the central reservation. I thought that the impact would have split them for sure but it just left tyre rubber on the on the plastic chrome strip and on the door, this has been cleaned off and left a bit of a graze which will dissapear once I get em painted to match the bike. (you listening Santa?) Depends what job you want them to do really.
