Hi everyone
Another post about my wife's 2010 america....
Right now she has the triumph soft bags and we would like to see some pics of other peoples bikes with hard bags. I guess we are considering turning her bike into a mini bagger?

Anyway, she doesn't want larger bags, wants to stay with smaller bags, but not sure if it's worth the cash to buy new ones when she already has the softbags.

Thanks for your input and pics

This is not my bike, but on this site there is an America with smaller hard bags shown.

I have fitted a set of hard bags. These came off my 1200 Bandit. Mono key 21ltr Kappa cases.

i am actually thinking about those same ones for my shiny black Storm, just trying to figure out if they will fit with the rear dresser bars and QR system and still stay within the dresser bars and rear taillights

i like them too! Z has all the cool stuff! :-) LOL

Those are tips. Dale (owner of SS) used to offer an assortment of tips. I even did a photo shoot for him and tried a few different ones on. I like how they extended the pipes a few more inches.
