get on EBAY and search for "larosa sportster solo sadlebag" these are excellent quality bags that look awesome. I bought one for my wife and it looks great and the quality is second to none. they are a little expensive though.

I bought the solo bag from Licks Cycles. It is a very high quality bag-just the right size too. Here's a link to the bag.

It's easy to get around the passenger footpeg issue. I installed two half-inch bushings and longer bolts on each attachment for the left passenger peg, which put it at just the right distance. The passenger can still use the peg without worrying about the bag.

Airscribe,
Do you recall what size and thread the bolts you used were?
And where did you get the 1/2" bushings?
Thanks.

+1 on the licks. I just put mine on about a week ago. I am having a bit of trouble getting it adjusted right though. Any tips paolu79?

I think i'm gonna buy a bag little bit bigger. Like this one

This is made in Italy...good quality but very expansive: 400 euro
Here in italy people like very much "wildhog" bags
