Default Xelement 2918-BR Saddlebags

I'm not a fan of being on a bike that looks like every other bike on the run or at the rally.

So I'm going for an old west feel for my 06 Super Glide. Nothing crazy, I just like Brown Leather. The only thing around here rarer than a white bike is one with brown leather.

She came with Harley Bolt On bags, and they function really well. Lots of space, look good, just the wrong color. I looked at the Harley Bags in Brown, and they were in the $600 area. That's not an area I can live in right now, so I finally decided on the Xelement 2918-BR Bags from Leatherup.com

When they first arrived, I was a bit disappointed. The leather was a bit discolored on one of the pockets. The leather is definitely thinner than Harley's bags.

There is a full review here.

Well, today I finally installed them, and I have to say, I really like the way they look on my scoot. I really like that I now have a removable solution for storage. If you are used to larger bags, you may feel a bit like you are running out of space with these, but all I usually carry are my tools, spare glasses, spare Shirt, and a rain jacket. It all fits. If I want to take a longer ride, I am most certainly going to need a bag strapped to my luggage rack.

The bags were $126 after tax, and a set of Easy Brackets cost about the same.
