solo side bags
has anyone got any experience with solo bags in long term. how well has it held shape? how well do the straps around the fender strut hold up and was it hard to replace? what would you do different.. besides get a real set of bags... lol

I had one for a little while and took it off because it rubs against the paint on the fender. Probably better off with a swing arm bag and a battery bag to carry small stuff.
With that said Bad&G makes some really beautiful stuff.

Mine is big enough to fit a spare change of clothes if I need them, I keep extra sunglasses a hat or whatever I might need that day.

I had a Bad&G solo and liked it. I took it off and put on two of the next size up. I like them better than throw overs. I am happy with Bad &G quality. I like handmade in the USA.

My knee doesn't seem to hang up on my B&g since lowering the rear 1 1/2".....beats me why. If I need to carry more than the bag will hold, I toss my back pack on. Otherwise my insurance card and registration is what I keep in the side bag.
