Looks great.......the only RKC hard bag conversion I have ever liked. The color of your bike makes a difference since the scheme is even more retro to begin and those bags with rails look great IMO.

How hard would it be to swap back and forth between leather/hard? I know you have the UC but my black classic is sporting a Tour Pack all summer due to the amount of family and friends coming out to visit Arizona this year. (I guess they are coming to see us too )

This has me thinking about a set of those hard bags with rail and solo seat when it gets back to just me on the scoot again come Sept or Oct. I think the RK Tour Pack would look best with the RKC saddlebags while set-up for "toting." As much as I would like to add an Ultra for hauling we already have his/hers RKC's and adding a 3rd scoot to the party is not in the financial cards.

I think the bags look incredible on your bike! I love the retro look that they have. Nicely done!!!

Also, I agree with Boogaloodude, the bags look better without the rails, but they still look sweet and complete the nostalgic look.

Other than the soft bags and spoke wheels, what is the difference between the RK Standard and the RK Classic?

If you are just talking Looks and not the added protection, I like just the Bags,without the rails. All in all, still looks Great.
