Thanks for the info. I've always taken them off. I just wasn't sure if I was creating more work than needed. I will look into the Lexall for the bags.

I take mine off every other wash that way I can get the real wheel and everything good back there. 2 times a year I take them off and rub the Harley leather conditioner into them really good , keeps them soft and clean. every wash and detail I use the Harley seat and saddlebag leather trim cleaner spray on them all. really shines them up!
