Default Saddlebag Setup???
Bike I purchased already had 6x9’s In bags... lost one bag so replacement bag has nothing... I want to replace existing 6x9’s in the one bag and put dual 8’s in the other bag... will have lowers, tourpak speakers and speakers for factory location.. my question is more about how will the bag setup sound?

do them both the same. Otherwise you will have some challenges wiring it up to an amp and it will surely sound un-balanced.

Sounds like all 6x9’s then...
I don’t want to buy another bag with no holes and have it painted to match them install 8’s
