Well now that RamSound showed me how to post an image with my post I would like to tell you about my new Leatherworks Bags. I originally wanted hard bags because I thought they would look better and allow more storage. All of the hard bags I found were for other bikes and others were just to big. I found this out by cutting out patterns. I also wanted ones that could be taken off easy so that I could maintain the chain and clean the area under the bags. I am not familar with the new faux (phoney) leathers so I opted for real leather from The Leatherworks and Easy Brackets. I ordered both from Side Road Cycles. Their website really made it easy. You simply choose your bike model any additions to the bags and the Easy Brackets. The brackets arrived in about a week and the bags less than three weeks. The Leatherworks makes the bags as they are ordered because of the many additions you may have. The workmanship is outstanding. The quick connects under the buckles are great. Each bag has a zippered map pocket, a good place to carry motorcycle papers, etc. The map pocket also hides the bolts connecting the bag to the brackets. The leather inside is soft and well done. There are four connection points on the top of each bag where bungie cords can be attached to carry items externally. I know Rob isn't going to like this, but a gallon of Carlo Rossi easily fits in a bag with room to spare.
