Default Rakaposhi saddlebags Question

Anyone have any experience with these bags? Pics of them on your bike? Ebay seems to be the only place I can find them, and the price dosen’t seem too bad, but I can’t find any user comments, reviews, or testominials. If anybody is running them, any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds like something made in India, no?

I got bored while sitting at my desk and decided to do a little research on Rakaposhi saddlebags, its seems as if all the forums (Honda, Yamaha, etc.) are asking the same question(s). But here is something I found on craigslist:

I have a set on my Low Rider. I really like them. They are well made & look great on the bike. They were a pain in the a$$ to mount to the bike. I ended up removing them & started over from scratch. After coming up with a plan & fabricating a stainless bracket, I am very happy with them. Just know up front they are going to take some tinkering.
