My Bags came in!
Been like a little kid waiting for Christmas for these. They came in today and I couldn't wait to play with my new toys. :-)
First impressions were great. The leather was thick and of good quality, and they did match the leather work already on the bike as advertised.
Now for the hardware. The EasyBrackets I got were pretty straight forward. Take out the bolts on the origional sissy bar mounts, replace it with the kit bolt adding the bracket on the end.
The brackets make a small difference in the size, but I am willing to deal.
Before
After
Next, test fit the brackets and bags for placement.
Bounce on the suspension a few times, checking for clearance.
Measure, mark, and *gulp* drill.
When done, I love the look. can't wait to plan a trip that requires packing them up! :-)

Nice bags, with all the leaves falling I can tell you don't have much riding left. Looks like all you need for a nice long trip.
