I like the original bag better, but I'm sure this is a quality piece. I'll add 2 things:
1. The flame pattern needs to be better. Good flames aren't easy to do, and poor flames just shouldn't be done. Poor pattern + the padding makes it look cheap, compared to your original bag.
2. If you made a frame mount side bag (like Anubisss/Dr. V-Twin had) I'd be buying one (original pattern). Pretty hard for all of us true dual owners to run a solo bag otherwise.
Free $0.02, If you are looking for a different direction maybe go for rougher looking plain leather with more medieval hardware. Something more minimalistic would round out your selection better than this.
I have to agree with everyone. Looks cheap!!!! Maybe one without the flames and better lines to flow with the swing arm. I have the Leather Works and love it.
Not only the stitching looks very Honda'ish, the dimensions does not flow with the angle of the swing arm, the back of the bag needs to be smaller I think.
