I have Leather Works but garage leathers are also excellent. I believe both are about 150.00. There must be some others but I know these two.

I have the LeatherWorks also. Excellent bag! Just wish I had the 5" instead of the 3" wide. As stated above, stay away from LaRossa!! They are junk!! I wasted my money on one trying to save a few bucks. There is a reason they are cheaper. Spend the extra and get a good quality bag!

Is there enough room for the passenger to put thier feet on the pegs? Looks like there would be with this set up.

I also have the HD bag. I am switching to throw overs this year though as there just is not enough storage space for myself.
