Default suggestions on swingarm bag

Tax refund arrived and I will allow myself one thing for my bike

Been thinking about getting a swingarm bag for a while now; wanted to get some recommendations.

I want something custom hand tooled, not mass produced.

Also, need a mount kit that will prevent the bag from mutilating the paint on the swingarm.

Remember seeing interesting links in previous discussions -- at work now and can't find the relevant info.

Thanks

Just ordered one from Sokustom along with a matching tank panel and fender bib. Haven't got it yet, though. The waiting is killing me!

I have a LeatherWorks 312 Bag, very nice bag no complaints at all, but if I had to do it again I would have gone with a SoKustom Bag same great quality with personalization
