Default Show me some saddlebags! (request for pics)

I'm scraping some cash together to make my new FXDL a bit more summer-ready since it finally decided to get above 40 degrees for more than an hour.

I had LeatherPro's bags on my Sportster and I'm leaning toward getting those again, but damn are they spendy. So, I wanted to see some pics of what you guys are using before I give someone a bunch of money.

Here's mine with the Boss bags. They are almost the same as the Leather Pro's bags. And yes, these are a bit pricey!

Think all saddle bags are pricey but then you only buy them once..got a single bag fixed to the side but big enough for most requirements but got it in Sweden so guess not really an option.

I got my Willie and Max bags for about $220 I believe, with mounts. They don't come off without unbolting them though. They work well, hold their shape and have been waterproof so far.



I got the whole works from www.cycleluggage.com

I went cheap and bought Viking Saddle bags, They are my first set and wanted to make sure I like having bags on the bike. For the $125 you cant beat them.

Throw overs for now, till I get my leather bags finished (building them myself). Got some easy brackets just waiting them.
