Are you asking about the leather or the hard bags? A lot of the hard bags and tour paks look like Mutazus but with higher price tags. I ordered a set of Mutazu saddlebags and send them back. They were so thin I couldn't believe that they would last very long on a motorcycle.
I would expect the same with the leather bags. Made by someone else, relabled and higher prices added.
I especially liked one set of hard bags I checked out. List price $590. Our price $700.

Never heard of this brand, but this might look nice on the bike. Any thoughts?

I bought a set of those hard bags new on E-bay for 80 bucks last year and used them until I found what I really wanted, They are paper thin plastic and I bet they laugh all the way to the bank every time somebody gives them 700 bucks for them. Run away from Viking, Junk. here is a link to the same bags with a different lock that is on e-bay right now. I can not believe that the locks are worth 635 bucks. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Motor...ht_2290wt_1167
