Default Good Saddle Bags

I dont like the look of all these slanted looking saddle bags. Anyone know of any that look straight and NOT slanted that are affordable?

Jaffrum and Leatherup are about as cheap as you can get, but they are cheap bags in every sense of the words. Willie and Max are what I what I bought when I wanted the least expensive bags I could get that weren't junk. How much money do you consider cheap? Every saddlebag company on earth make both slant and standard shape bags. Just name your poison.

Saddlemen makes a teardrop shape that fits nicely. I don't know if you think they are priced right but they are excellent quality.

As long as they clear rear shocks, that's why slants are kind of made for Dynas

Basic HD bags. They have a couple other selections and distressed as well. Not the biggest, and don't lock but work ok for me. You can hard mount pretty close to the fenders as well.

I have these saddlebags on my Fat Bob, have them because this is my only vehicle.

Very happy with them.
