Little too puffy for that style. When they are that thick, hang up higher and then you'll need two? HA.

Don't care for the bag one bit. The seats look good to me. Try running without the bag for a while and see if the seats grow on you.

the more I look at it the bag is just to thick but would work other than that,but if you cut it down to all the other standard bag sizes that mount in the same place it would be a waste as a bag

OP knows the seat is bad *** already, it is the bag he is not sure about and based on the replies I think we can see why.

Grips / seat / plug wires = bad ***

Swingarm bag with white piping & stiching = not so good.

(easy solve ------ eat the $ spent on the bag and get a plain back one = lesson learned - ps: it was a good try )

matches your white walls which are thick so the bold look of the black and white work with it.
Not my kinda thing but I think it looks good on your bike.'

It only matters what you think of it though, if you dont like it you can sell the bag or dye them.

I dig it (bag and all)! Unique and has a cool retro look. It doesn't look too loud. My bike is orange with silver ghost flames, yours is tame by comparison white piping and all.

I like the bag, but not the back seat...
Take the white trim off the bag but leave the stitching. Beautiful bike

I think it looks good and will look even better as it wears. But its all about what you like.
