They all look better without, but sometimes, you gotta have storage. It took a long time, but I finally gave in and put bags on mine. They look good, though. I have to keep the passenger seat and backrest on, too. My wife rides with me sometimes, and it's a pain to put that stuff back on every time. I've gotten used to it.

For me, stripped down look, no bags, no backrest, just solo seat. You can always put them back if you travel

I vote no bags and solo seat.

BTW, those wheels look very similar to mine. Are they PM Torque?

I personally like the bags AND the backrest, but I'm obviously biased; and I never really follow the majority. I feel like I'm about the only one who actually LIKES the 105th colors, as well. But I bought my bike because I liked the way it looked, I style it the way I please and you should do the same. It's YOUR bike! I do like the solo look also, but that's not an option for me since my wife likes to ride with me and since I like having the ability to carry stuff...just my $0.02.
