Default Cycle Visions - CV-138 - BareBacks?

Cycle Visions - CV-138 - BareBacks - Has anyone tried these? What's your opinion of how well they work? It looks like the bag bracket comes off with the bag after installing these, is that correct?

Thanks

If I had a company I'm pretty sure I'd never name any of my products anything containing the term "bareback."

They work well.
They can be a little tough to line up sometime when re-installing the bags, but the clean install makes it worth it.

I have a pair of 137's for sale in the Classifieds section right now:

I have them on my Lo.
They work well, but the bags stick out from the bike more. They actually keep the babs from hitting the axel nuts or exhaust.
